If you need a strong (1200+ watt) power supply Gigabyte will serve you well. We use their 850 watt units for our "normal" builds and often will use the 900 watt silver for a little more power and still remain economic. Most of our builds are high-end so normally will will use the platinum/titanium version of any brand PSU. This is one of the better high wattage units we have seen. Be careful with it as the PSU side of the main motherboard cable is unique to this unit and then merges into a "regular" 24 pin plug for your motherboard, so don't substitute a 24 pin cable you have laying around.
One caveat - I would not recommend using anything below 16 Gauge cables for these higher wattage PSUs. Not every maker supplies that gauge cables as most will give you 18 gauge. I did notice with a 1600 watt Evga we just used those cables were 16 gauge. We often get custom length/color cables for our builds so it has not been much of an issue with us.
