http://www.3dmark.com/3dm11/5876281 my 600 watt psu isn't up to snuff. can't oc video card much without driver crashes.

Is the PSU a generic one/decent one/good one?

Decent one's should be alright at that spec. GTX 680 cards aren't that power hungry, so I'd imagine your oc'ed cpu is taking up quite a bit of power. (I have the same one and I usually only run it that high when I'm running benchmarks. I was lazy this last time though.) If you're running a Seasonic, Corsair, Enermax or something like that 600W should be plenty though.

A long time ago I was running SLI GTX 260 cards and an OC'ed Q6600 on a 500W Antec earthwatts psu. It wasn't the best, but it was decent.(was included with my old Antec case) I'm currently running an 850W Silverstone Strider Gold PSU. ( http://www.silverstonetek.com/product.php?pid=287 ) It worked fine with SLI GTX 580 cards and now with AMD Crossfire 7970 cards. (with an OC'ed 2600K)
