To power your new S5 which PSU or PSU's would you use? Why?

Single HX850W? Single HX750W? Single CX750M? Or twin CX600s or twin CX500Ms?

Likely overclock in the future. All PSU's are Corsairs.

thanks all

Single CX750M is the best buy for EU, EVGA 1300W for the US. I would have said the RM1000 if S5s had been just a bit lower power consumption as those things are amazing, but alas its just a bit too much for 2x on an RM1000.

What? I've got a number of Corsair PSU's, looking for reco on what to use out of what I have.

1x HX850 or 1x HX750 Corsairs? Have 3x CX750Ms, believe one will run the C5. Be safe and run two? Or is the completely contrary to power conservation?
Run twin CX600s?

thanks!

Single cx750, hx750 or hx850 will done the job, but if you cont the efficiency then hx850 will give smaller power usage.
