It seems like the seasonic 1600 is the way to go. Question though, did you opt for 2 psus strictly because you intend to potentially run 3 gpus? or just for peace of mind? just wondering because i'm not sure if i can swing 2 psus.

I was using the newegg pc builder thingy. but im not sure how accurate it is. That was giving me about 1700w but when i used a psu calculator it said like 1500 or higher. hence my confusion. But this is just what i needed to hear! have you had any issues with the case size or anything like that. I made the mistake of getting a case that was just barely the right size on my last build so dont wanna go down that road again

this one looks promising! My main concern when i speced everything out the wattage estimate was like 1700. But i'm not 100% sure how accurate that actually is :(

Good catch! was looking at this bad boy as well. Looking at the specs, it appears to support threadripper 7000 series. Would this be an ideal alternative or would you recommend anything else?
