Hello,

This will be my first build. I have all parts and components selected (thanks to TomsHardware forums, learned A LOT) but the PSU Wattage is giving me a headache.Here is the build

http://pcpartpicker.com/p/26aXJ

I didn't select a case because I am choosing a local producer that's not on the pcpartpicker list. (Silentium PC), but it will have 5 fans, which i selected.

And I do plan on overclocking this build, never done it before but learned a lot on these forums and want to tinker with the PC as such.

Thanks for the help in advance :)

P.S. I hate cables, so the PSU has got to be modular.

I would go with a Corsair 750W bronze or better PSU. The 2 x GTX 660s will require a tad over 23 amps on the +12V rail maxed out. The I5-3570 adds another 6.5 amps. O/C will boost those requirements a bit, but not too much. The rest of the +12V devices won't be much of a demand on the PSU.
