Way back I used an
A-Power AK 680 PSU, my opinion of that product, i now call it counterfeit
After roasting it half to death, i bought the
Corsair TX850V2 which is more suitable to SLI setups
For a single gaming class card, 650W is probably enough to cover even the GTX 680 SC etc, the 850W PSU I own is capable of running GTX 680 SLI
I noticed that models of the GTX 950 are available with slot power and up to 8-pin PCI Express power. Clearly this card is targeting the overclocking market. I usually buy higher up the market primarily as they cards can play games better.

Corsair Carbide 300R, TX850V2, Asus PA238QR
Asus HD7870, EVGA GTX 660 Ti FTW Signature 2 and several others
