If you get more Ants, you can save yourself some money and run two off of a RM850. The RM850 can easily handle two over clocked Ants, so a RM1000 is overkill.
Can the RM850 really easily handle to OCd Ants? Maybe I am PSU-cursed but my RM850 could not reliably run even two non-OCd Ants.
Really? I'm using four RM850s powering two Ants each overclocked to 375, and they all are running flawlessly.
I've used the CX750 to run two Ants, RM850 to run two Ants, Antec HCG-900 to power two Ants, EVGA 1300G2 to power three Ants, and Rosewill RBR1000-M to power two Ants. I really haven't had a bad experience powering Ants.
The only PSU I was a bit uncomfortable running two Ants with was the CX750 because it was drawing 850 Watts at the wall, but the PSU worked for a week or two until I was able to replace it with a better PSU.
In my experience, Ants aren't that picky about which power supply you use as long as it's not a complete piece of crap.
