PSU Problem

[Marshmallow64]

I recently switched over to the antec 1200 which has an increase in fans compared to the antec 900.

I started playing around with overclocking again but I can not run anything stable. OCCT crashes in like 5-10 min and same with prime. Even when set at stock volts and speed.

With the specs I have listed below I am wondering if my PSU is the culprit for now having enough power to run everything. My video card is not overclocked. I did a few PSU calculator things online, but they all seem a bit inaccurate and they give me different answers.

I have 7 120 mm fans and a 250 big boy up top.

Unless the Corsair HX620 is faulty, it's not a lack of power.

If your PSU is a modulated, multi-rail unit you should take a look at load distribution. Other than that I've got nothing since I'm a wuss when it comes to overclocking.

Perseus,

So am I! :)

Thanks for the replies, from the amd thread, some poeple are saying I need up to 650-700 minimal for the rig I am running, or it is a faulty cpu/motherboard.

No way:

Overclocked AMD Phenom II X3 (95W default CPU)~ 140 -150W with your nice overclock?

Single 260: ~135w

You don't have a conglomeration of other peripherals that would tax your power supply if it's not faulty, not even close.

You said it all ran fine in your other case? If so, something happened on the transfer to your new case.

Well I ran OCCT and prime again using stock, everything went smoothly this time - weird. I guess I have to do some more tests and slowly overclock my way back up.

My PSU wattage should be suffice.
