I need a solid power supply rec for the following System build!
the PS needs to be:

  • fully modular
    platinum-rated or better
    operating at no more than 50-60% of rated capacity
Ambient operating temps will be 50F to (rarely) 90F, avg 70F

System Components:

  • i7-6700K, OC'd as needed to run well with 2x8GB Gskill Trident 3400 DDR4 RAM
    Gigabyte G1 gaming 7 Z170X mobo
    Corsair 105i AIO
    2xEVGA 1080 FTW
    Samsung 950 Pro M2 512GB PCI-E
    A couple extra SATA3 SSDs
    one 2TB 5400 HDD

All components above are in-hand except the two video cards, which are ordered and on the way.

I also need to select a VR-friendly, mid-tower case to stuff it all into; the new NZXT S340 Elite is a leading candidate.

I could just throw a 1200W titanium Supernova at it and be done, but that's the easy way out. ;-)

I also like to leave the case as the last component to purchase in a build, so that I'm sure everything fits.

Many thanks!
