Need Power supply help!

[007Nix]

I am going to build a new PC, config will be


Core i7-920
Gigabyte ex58-UD5
Corsair 12 gb ddr3
ATI 5970
GTS 250 as PHYSX (If i get GTX 480)
Cooler Master HAF 932


I think the upcoming GTX 480 will Consume same power as of ATI 5970 or more than that. I will use my current GTS 250 as physx processor.
Please Recommend me a good PSU.

■Corsair 850HX
■Seasonic M??? 850 (Don't remember the exact model number but it is the new 80Plus Gold model)
■Antec SG-850
■Corsair 850TX
■Corsair 750TX

Anyone of those five will be strong enough for your setup.

The new Corsair HX850, Silver Certified power supply would be an appropriate choice:
