What about this psu recommended by ChumP

Here's 4 all will get the job done.


G2 is the best made by Super Flower , others are very good made by Seasonic.


 

Can I get a comparable seasonic for less?
 


I was just asking if I could get basically the same thing from seasoinc for less.
 


Is the 550w version enough for my build would it still be enough it I wanted to get a maxwell or gtx 980 in the future?
Is the 650w enough to possibly sli?
 

I wasn't really serious about sli, just wondering. And can the 550w psu support an gtx 980 in the future? How about overclocking? or the proposed Maxwell architecture coming in 2016?
 


Thanks I am going with the EVGA 650w
