Just looking for a good PSU that will work for this build and minor overclocking. Only asking for the PSU here and not peripherals, OS, or other upgrades.

Newegg has the Antec True power Classic TP 650C a 650W psu rate 80+ gold with a 5 year warr. It's made by Seasonic and is a up to date design made with high quality parts. The only down side is it's not modular, but it's only $60 after $10 off code EMCPHEF636 and $20 mir. Price is good until 2/17.
i highly recommend

Estimated Wattage: 353W

this power supply 750w you can do plenty of overclocking but not with that stock cooler also go with a cooler master hyper evo than you can overclock you're cpu at a very good temp.

For a system using a single NVIDIA Reference Design GeForce GTX 760 graphics card NVIDIA specifies a minimum of a 500 Watt or greater system power supply that has a maximum combined +12 Volt continuous current rating of 30 Amps or greater and that has at least two 6-pin PCI Express supplementary power connectors. Some of the non-Reference Design GeForce GTX 760 cards have a single 8-pin (e.g. ASUS GTX 760 DirectCU II OC) or two 8-pin (e.g. MSI GTX 760 HAWK) or one 6-pin and one 8-pin (e.g. Gigabyte GTX 760 WindForce OC, EVGA GTX 760 SC w/ACX Cooler, MSI GTX 760 TwinFrozr Gaming) 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) 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.

XFX XTR Series P1-550B-BEFX 550W ATX12V / EPS12V SLI Ready CrossFire Ready 80 PLUS GOLD Certified Full Modular Active PFC With Full Modular Cables
• OEM: Seasonic
• maximum combined +12 Volt continuous current rating of 45 Amps
• two (6+2)-pin PCI Express supplementary power connectors
• Haswell Compatible: Yes
• 80 PLUS GOLD Efficiency Certification
• 5 Year Limited Warranty
• Link: http://www.newegg.com/Product/Product.aspx?Item=N82E16817207032

Ample spare capacity to handle any overclocking of the CPU and GPU that you may want to attempt.
