You'll be fine. It's not going to use 600W's of power and you will have overclocking room.

I'm thinking of upgrading my graphics card, I've already decided on getting this http://pcpartpicker.com/part/evga-video-card-02gp42774kr The only thing I'm concerned about is if my power supply would damage this part under overclocking. I've heard that when overclocking it can increase your wattage by a lot, and the minimum requirements are 600 watts, my power supply is 600 watts currently, would it be wise to keep this power supply? I don't want the power supply to overheat and take down the whole system with it.

Don't know if it matters but.

Current Specs:

Intel Core i7 4770k 3.5 ghz (planning to overclock)

2x4gb Corsair Vengence Ram 

H80i 

Msi Z87-G45

3x Case Fans

CD/Rom Drive

Kingston V300 SSD 120 GB

1TB Seagate HDD

and of course the Evga GTX 770 SC'd I plan to add.

Thanks in advance.

 

Current Power Supply. I Think.

I personally would recommend against the supply for a few things, noting the lack of 80+ certification. I would recommend a Corsair CX600M or EVGA 600B.

Does this power supply have a high chance of blowing up and taking components with it? If it's not 80+, I knew I got ripped off when buying this power supply considering for the same price I coulda got a 80+ certified Corsair.  :(
