    I'd grab a 1kw PSU just to be sure. They are having a sale on PSUs right now at EVGA. The 1000w G3 is a very nice unit and at $119 it's a really good deal for that caliber of PSU.

    Do you think 1500 watt or 1600 watt would not be needed?? I plan to oc the GPUS as high as I can

    You know what? I misread your post. When I posted that I thought you were just running 2 1080's and not the 1080 Ti's. While a 1000w PSU would still be enough for that setup I'd actually recommend something like a 1200w PSU. You typically want your PSU to be around 50% load for it's best efficiency. A 1500w would be massive overkill and you may actually not put enough load on it to stay in it's sweet spot for efficiency. 
     
    EVGA's 1200w P2 is another superb PSU (coincidentally another unit built by Super Flower)

    EVGA 1200 P2 is recommendation from many satisfied people. 
    Batch 1000 P2 and 1200 P2 really deserve attention from every enthusiast who want strong and reliable PSU.
    There are best example of SF efforts to beat Seasonic and Flextronics.

    I pulled the trigger and got the 1300 watt psu. Was this a good choice?

     That's a good PSU as well, if a little louder and on a slightly older platform with a bit less efficiency. Having said that it should more than comfortably suit your needs.

    Yeah I just want to be safe than sorry, I plan to OC the Kingpins as high as I can go now and then 420 rad and 360 rad will be cooling the cpu /chipset and gpus

    The 1200 P2 would have been more than enough to comfortably power your setup even heavily overclocked. It would have been quieter and with better efficiency but the 1300 G2 you selected is also a fine PSU. Like I said it's just from a generation earlier platform with a little less here and there. I'm glad you didn't get some off brand cheapo PSU.

    I just got a 1200-P2 and it is nice, running a 7900X, 1 EVGA 1080TI FE, 1 EVGA 1080TI FTW3, 32GB RAM.  This is my main rig Folding 24x7 and doing all my business work on it.
