the problem is not your GPUs pushing the 600w. its your cpu. its a power hungry cpu, unlike the newer SB/IB cpus. So i would be weary about that part. usually 600w is more than enough for SLI 670s + inte SB/IB chips

way too expensive! I see a price drop soon. Why would anyone pay the same amount of money, but get less performance than the 690 other than either having to deal with SLI (690) or have less performance and go with single gpu (titan).

Technically you can run CF 7970 on the 650w psu you have. Any quality 700-750w psu will do you fine. as well.

3820s probably won't hit 5.0ghz. its not 'unlocked' that why you spend the big buxs for the "K" x79 cpus. as for the 3770k..it be pretty close. as the temperatures on those aren't so good. If you are excited about 5.0 ghz you are...
