Why is my 12v rail @ 13.6 when full loading @ 1040 2.2v? Why is it idleing @ 13.2?

I know for a fact my 250watt psu can't handle anymore, but why is this happening?

Will i get a better overclock when i change to a 400watt antec?

You shold most defintly upgradeyour psu and yes you probably will overclock higher.

The 12 volt rail doesn't have anything to do with the core voltage, the 5 volt rail does. As for upgrading it, there are no guarantees. You'll probably want to just to meet AMD's recommendaations (unless you already have)
