My 5v line is REALLY low, any way to fix it?

Well, I have an Antec 300watt power supply and I am currently overclocked at 10.5 x 166 for 1743mhz at 2.18v. My 5v line is at about 4.75v which is kind of low, is there anyway I can get this higher? some times it dips below 4.70v So far my system has been running prime for 10 minutes to lockups or hangs..

see hoots sticky at the top of the page

I just may think your PSU is only too small 300 watts for two IBM GXP60's a 2.2v mod thats a little overboard ... Although try Hoot's article.

you need at Least 350w, id say you need to buy a 430watt psu just to be more stable.. that'll only drop you about 100 or less... but worth it IMO
