Okay, heres my problem. I have a 950watt power supply but when I overclock my two 5970s and the cpu the lights will dim and sometimes flip the breaker.

I'm fine as long as I only oc two of the three weither it is the cpu/videocard or just the two cards but with all three I get a restart or a breaker will flip.

Is this due to my powersupply or just to much juice sucking from the wall?
Do I need to just go ahead and get a new powersupply or is there a ups that could slove this problem for me.

I have a coolmaster 950b ps
 
All of us reading this post can only guess as to what the cause is. You can make a much better guess is you find out what the amp rating is on the circuit breaker and what other electrical devices are on the same circuit. Fully loaded, that PS could draw around 10 amps.
