Can't find any reviews, and CM is known for overrating and low quality. I'd run a mile.
I'd pick up one of these for a little more: http://www.flipkart.com/antec-vp550-550-watts-psu/p/itm...

cooler master thunder is rated to push 408w on dual 12v rails
408/12v= 34a th variance takes it down to 33.5a which is clos and i think this is the same build as the extreme which is a tier 4 and i would not get this
you should not oc on this psu
your system draw is 28a overclock increase your amperage and since this isnt well known i would say the variance is large and you will get voltage spikes that may damage your components being as it is only about 60w from what it can handle on max load

I wouldn't consider that PSU quality. Spend a little more and get something decent.
If you want to SLI, you're looking at about a 700W PSU. I'd suggest this

What is your budget range pl:

http://www.flipkart.com/seasonic-eco-500-watts-psu/p/it...
And for those who are saying not to buy Cooler Master. I'm using Cooler Master PSUs since 4 years and never have any issue with them.

Have a read of this for a reason not to buy CM: http://www.hardwaresecrets.com/article/Cooler-Master-eX...
Note that they did build some good one, but the cheap ones are largely crap. And in my book, anything from a vaguely suspect brand without a good review is automatically crap.

problem with corsair is that it has low connectivity for graphics and other fan because of it's 4 sata cables
and seasonic is good but it is same as compared to cm psu as i wanted to buy in link above that thunder master 500W one.
does CrossFire Certification can it support crossfire and sli

Someone Somewhere has recommended a good PSU. If not that go with Seasonic one. At the end it is your choice.but you before told you have that cm one and which is best for your rig as you told above
Yes, it is so.
But definitely cooler master is not the only brand out there. If you've better option go for it, otherwise there is nothing wrong with cooler master series PSUs at-least from my personal experience which may differ from others

If you want to SLI, you need a larger (~700W) PSU. I said that further up, and recommended this.
The Antec VP-550 would be OK for one GTX660, but not two.

Ok. Though for SLI I will still recommend HX-650, you can go for this PSU:
http://www.flipkart.com/corsair-vs650-650-watt-psu/p/it...
It is Corsair VS 650W PSU with 50Amps on +12v rail which is good and efficiency upto 85% which is just fine. Rs.4049

I'd avoid the VS ones - possible bad caps, so early failure.
HX are expensive, and there's no real need for a Gold one.
The 660 has a TDP of 140W, and only needs one 6-pin power connector. As such, a pair of them and an FX6300 should just fit on a 650W PSU. I'd suggest the Antec VP-650.
However, I wouldn't overclock much.
