Hi, I am planning to build a new computer but I am not sure how much power do I need to power this machine.
CPU: Core i7-4930K
Graphic Card: 2 ASUS GTX780-DC2OC-3GD5 in SLI
Motherboard: Asus Rampage IV Extreme or Black Edition
SSD: 2 corsair Neutron GTX in Raid 0
HDD: 2TB 7200 rpm Seagate
Ram: G.SKILL Ripjaws Z Series 16GB (4 x 4GB)
Cooler: Corsair Hydro 100i
Please tell me what is the best PSU for this build
Thank You guys.

For a system using two GeForce GTX 780 graphics cards in 2-way SLI mode NVIDIA specifies a minimum of a 850 Watt or greater system power supply that has a maximum combined +12 Volt continuous current rating of 65 Amps or greater and that has at least two 6-pin and two 8-pin PCI Express supplementary power connectors.

Total Power Supply Wattage is NOT the crucial factor in power supply selection!!! Sufficient Total Combined Continuous Power/Current Available on the +12V Rail(s) rated at 45°C - 50°C ambient temperature, is the most critical factor.

Overclocking of the CPU and/or GPU(s) may require an additional increase to the maximum combined +12 Volt continuous current ratings, recommended above, to meet the increase in power required for the overclock. The additional amount required will depend on the magnitude of the overclock being attempted.
 
I honestly think you should get a 1050W PSU to be safe + maximize your overclocking potential.
