Looking for the best setup for 500kh/s or 1000kh/s on WPA/WPA2

5x GTX 970 and a 1kw PSU is not a very clever idea for many reasons. The PSU will always operates at its limit. That's bad for a) life endurance, b) noise, c) power costs and d) stability. A PSU works effectiv in the range auf roughly 25-75% use. Under and above that it loses a few percentages power effiecency. If you let your system run a lot like 24/7 even 1% difference shows off later on your power bill. It depends on the PSU, a gold or better is taken for granted.

Stability is even more important. If a PSU runs at its limits nasty effects can occur and for the worst it might shut down some of your GPUs forever by an internal shortcut.

Buy a 1500W instead.
