its a 1200W PS, the 100W one wich was the only one on that list from above was only 50$ cheaper. What do you think about this?

Based on reviews, it's an excellent PSU. However, 1200W is overkill for your build ... I'd save the $50 and get 1000W (or less). I wouldn't go lower than 850W unless you are replacing the GPUs. You don't gain anything by getting an overpowered PSU except a lighter wallet and, perhaps, bragging points.

Update, so for so good. I drained and cleaned out my system, replaced the PSU with a 1000W one. I am about to run some stress tests to see if it shuts down on itself again now. Did the GPU tests already and nothing went wrong. Altho I am unable to OC to a stable amount, I am stuck using the optimized defaults in bios. There is 8 preset OC profiles already in place but none of them are stable and wont alow the pc to stay running for more then 10min lol.

So after 3hours 30min of Prime85 testing, I think the system is good. Using 100% of the cpu the entire time the temps reached a high of 61C. Thanks for everyones insights and help! saved me a lot of money lol.
