You would be in the 750 ballpark if you got two GTX 1080 Tis. There's very little reason to get more than 750 watts these days unless you're trying to build a very unusual machine.

Get the AX760i unless the AX860i is cheaper. You do not need 860 watts, and you probably never will. Do not get the HX1000i. It's not as good as the AXi models, and you do not need 1000 watts.

You'd need someone to physically dissect the PSU to really know that. And even jonnyguru, as experienced with power supply post-mortems as anybody around, occasionally gets stumped as to which precise part on a junker failed.

In order to reliably determine what died in the PSU, you'll need something more like this:

this:

and 3 or 4 of these:

well i think i prefer to buy a new one xdd
 


Depending on whether or not you grab a cheap Chinese unit, those tools might be worthwhile. :p

Seriously, though, grab a Seasonic S12II 630 if you're on a budget. If you have the money, go for an EVGA G2 or G3.

If you are willing to pay to avoid this issue again, consider the Corsair RMx series.

You almost certainly don't need 1000W unless you have a crazy high-end build that would've blown up your Topower 700 a long time ago. You may be spending an extra $100 for no good reason.

 


If you're willing to drop that much money, the AX760i or AX860i are better bets. What hardware do you have that needs more power than that?
