First off, you can add the amps on the 12v rails together, so your PSU is specced to provide 56 amps for 12v.

However, it's a no name PSU that I wouldn't trust for a second. This would be a good quality replacement without breaking the bank:

PCPartPicker part list / Price breakdown by merchant

Power Supply: XFX 650W 80+ Bronze Certified ATX Power Supply ($49.99 @ NCIX US)
Total: $49.99
Prices include shipping, taxes, and discounts when available

EDIT: Okay, get rid of your current PSU. Seriously. 880w and only one 6-pin PCIe cable? That proves to me that it's not up to spec and probably junk.
