Ill maybe just use Turbo boost until my psu comes, not oc ram, and a very small oc on gpu if necessary

Then yeah, you'll be good.

Maybe, but with OC, it would be close, if not dangerous.

Will it be enough until i get the money for a new one? Gaming and some rendering and PS

 

I wont OC the RAM and GPU as much if it becomes a problem

Mainly gaming would be the issue... But it should be ok. By 'issue' I don't mean it'll explode, but it might run a little thin- just don't go crazy with the OCing, and it should be fine to keep the PSU.
