Ok, so today I snatched up one of these: http://www.corsair.com/power-supply-units/professional-series-gold/ax850.html
850w single rail... should do the trick for my current config and the upgrades. Going to go test it now *crosses fingers*

P-38J 432nd FS / 475th FG (Phillipine Phandango)

YAK-9U 318 IAP (Red Storm - Krupp Steel)

Actually, Corsair does not make that power supply.  Seasonic makes it.  It is the same power supply Thermaltake sells (only difference is the color of the case) as well as a few others.  Just FYI.

Well its what they had with good wattage that was single rail down there at the computer store, and so long as it works I wont complain   ;)
So far so good though, no gfx issues yet. If I get the problem again I'll post in here. Thanks alot for the help Skuzzy. If I ever happen to make it to the AH convention over there I'll have to buy you a beer.  :cheers:

Ok I got the last bit of hardware in to give my computer a face-lift. So, after I swap the Mobo, CPU, and add an identical video card I'll have to test it out abit more I think.

It has had the same error again, but it's only happened once during World of Tanks. No problems with any other games.
---edit---
For some reason I've noticed as well that I can't get over 25fps on WoT, no problems with other games so far. Going to try reinstalling WoT to see if it improves anything.

Ok, so I took the old vido card out and stopped running crossfirex, didn't notice a big difference anyhow. The other card is running everything smooth, and no issues with WoT, AH, or any of my other games. But it still locks up now and then. Have I gotten 3 bad video cards, or is there a software issue? The inside of my case is always cool, plenty of air moving through it. I keep my fans relatively clean. I am starting to contemplate wiping my HD's and starting over with a fresh install of windows 7. Could it be an issue from upgrading vista? Also, my wife has had a similiar issue with her computer. But her's was solved by using an admin account.
