Seasonic S12II 520 can easily power GTX660ti up.
You can even add other extensions.

Can you post a pic of the inside of the cabby? I would recommend a roomy cabinet actually for such cards. You might want to check out Zotac's GTX660 , because its got small form factor .

Which cabinet are you using? Tall us the model number along with the manufacturer name. It would be enough. I don't think there is further need to post the picture.

depends on the model of the GTX 660 Ti you are going to get - here's a comparision between Amp and power Ed. :

if you are getting something like Zotac GeForce GTX 660 Ti 2GB amp! then you are all prepared with the cabinet you have.

^^ Is that a... chassis? :shock:
Get it changed with something like:
NZXT Source 210 @2.4K (best choice)
or
CoolerMaster Elite 430 @3.2K (have no cable management feature)
or
Corsair 400R @4.5K (budget need to be high)

Managing Cables in Cooler Master 430 is an art and when it's done, you can't stop smiling :)

Dude, get a new cabinet whatever you wish . But DON'T put GTX 660 Ti in that crappy plastic box.

@ d6bmg: lol. The same question popped into my mind !!
Looks like snakes in a pit.
I doubt any cable management is possible there.
@OP : Change the case as d6bmg says.

Could be due to overheating. Did you measure the CPU & GPU temperature at that time? If you did please do share.

Use Hwmonitor.
MSI Afterburner is useful to monitor GPU temperature .
