I can't say that I have ever seen a dual 24 pin psu. Don't you mean dual 8 pin psu as the board you mention only has a single 24 pin socket but a pair of 8 pin sockets? The one above is no good as it only has a single 8 pin lead but the all of these below have a pair of 8 pin leads. All are quality psu's with long warranties ranging from 7 years (Superflower) to 12 years (Phanteks). The rest have 10 year warranties.

thank you,was actually looking for something a little beefier as i will be adding dual 1080ti's in Sli,(TBH only for aeshtetic reasons got them for the same price as a 2018ti...LOL),
Are you doing some GPU utilizing compute stuff ?
Because for gaming multiple GPUs are now basically drifting dead in water.

as i said it's mostly for aesthetic reasons i had the chance to pick up two back when they were scarce for very decent prices so thought why not

In that case forget the 850w units as each 1080ti is capable of pulling 300w by itself, more if overclocking. Here are 1000w versions. Warranties are the same as before, 7-12 years with Superflower being the shortest and Phanteks/Seasonic Prime being the longest. The rest are 10 years.

With AM4 being quite a power hungry platform you may even want to cover all possibilities by going for a 1200w psu.

...Some punctuation, like full stops and maybe some capital letters while you're at it? ;) It makes it so much easier to read when you use them.

As PastyM has said, much better to get a 1000W. PSU's are most efficient when using ~50% of their total power. I have the Corsair RM1000x but any of the ones listed will do a good job.
