Hi,

I have a silverstone 360w strider (i think), the model is ENP-5336G, apparently there's also an Enhance PSU with the same model, specs, http://www.enhanceusa.com/file/42_specification.pdf.

I'm gonna use it to power a DFI infinity 975x/g, E2140, 2hdds, ati X600, and 2x1GB. If I set the vcore to 1.3v and oc it as far as I can would it be safe?

thanks

I think you'd be fine.

The only way to find out is to try. Do things slowly. It won't take long to figure out how everything is.

Silverstone makes good PSUs. I'd imagine performance will end up being similar to what you get from overclocking on a tier two 400-450W PSU (due to the 12v rails being of the same amperage and not having excessive 5v rail amperage).

Monitor the voltages, especially the vCore and +12v. If these voltages fluctuate a lot, then you should think about dropping the clock to default or purchasing another PSU. I was running one of my Q6600s at 3.5GHz until just a couple days ago on an Antec 430, which not that much more powerful than your 360.
