Have to get a new PSU - Current one died :(

[BassAddict]

So... I started saving money up for an upgrade on my gaming computer, BUT the power supply decided not to turn back on after it was shut off for a day.

History: I currently run an ASRock AMD 890 MB with Windows 7. Whenever I would shut down the computer from Windows, it would shut down, but I was able to start the computer back up from a mouse click. So, that is telling me that it was in some sort of hibernation mode when I told it to shut down from Windows 7. And, the PSU must have had some sort of constant power not utilizing at least 20% load to retain its reliability. (Apparently, if you run the PSU at less than 20% load, it could damage the PSU over time).

Also, I usually plug in a Surge Suppressor to all of my electronics, but I noticed I don't have one running to the computer. And, I have not been using a Surge Protector, as well.

Current: Since, I don't have a multimeter, I used a paper clip from the green wire to the ground next to it. It didn't turn on after flipping the On/Off switch. So, that is telling me it is dead.

In case you were wondering what the model is, it is a Antec CP-850.

So, now I need a new power supply, but I will also buy a Surge Suppressor and Surge Protector. Note: I will either be running a HD 6970 with a GTX 260 (Physics), or a GTX 570 / 580 with GTX 260 (Physics), and AMD Bulldozer. I need some help with getting a good PSU, and these are the power supplies that I have been looking at. Please give suggestions for other any other you may feel is adequate!

The Surge Suppressor is only $5, so all I need is a recommended Surge Protector. Hope someone can help me out! Thanks

You only need about a 650w-750w power supply for that setup. I would stick with corsair, antec, silverstone, seasonic, PC power and cooling, or XFX brand PSUs. 1000w is overkill, even for two cards.

Haha. You guys are getting lazy. you should just save that response on your desktop so you can copy and paste.

Anyway, The first one is awesome. I would get that if you were stuck between the 3. Though claptonman isn't lying, that is a bit much, even for what you are running.
Here's the 750w version of that Antec. It's only $80 after MIR and it will definitely handle what you've got going

Hello.. Thanks for the help. After much research (jonnyGURU), I am going with the HCG-900, even though, it is not modular. After reviewing the specs of the Graphic Cards and the future processor, I don't want to push the Amps to use OCP on a 700 Watt power supply. Also, I don't want to take anything lower than what I currently have. The electricity bill doesn't even show a dent..
