Hi guys needing some advice.

I'm worried my OCZ 600w psu is too small to support high end gaming.

Ive got a M5A97 Pro Motherboard
Sapphire DualX HD7970 Graphics Card
AMD FX 8150 8core 3.6GHZ CPU
16GB DDR3 RAM
Corsair H60i Liquid Cooling for CPU
125GB SSD
500GB HDD

Can anyone help and give me some advice ?

Yes, it is fine. Although it is not the best PSU, your GPU is only 250W max, and your CPU is 125W max. This means that your PSU will most likely not support SLI, but it should be fine for the moment with your current setup. :)

If you ever plan on doing SLI, the Corsair HX750 PSU is great. Normally this would be overkill, but the TDP of your CPU is very high, so two of your GPU and one of the CPU will be about 600W+, and that is without any GPU OCing.
Remember, if you think someone has answered your question and/or been very helpful, don't forget to give them a B.A.! :)
