Ok, like the topic says, I need to know whether my Athlon has reached a max barrier type thing or is my power supply killing me??

Ok, I have my 1GHz (266) AXIA Athlon running at 1333MHz (10x133.34) with Defualt 1.75V on KT7A-R (See sig). And no matter what I did, I cant run 1.4GHz or higher, whether voltage is at 1.85V or VIO is raised to 3.6/3.7, with no effect! Sure, it boots into Windows fine at 1.4GHz, heck, it even made it into Windows fine at 1466MHz and ran fine for a little while but then later Crashed! So does anyone here believe that its my 300w powersupply thats holding me from 1.4GHz stable and MHz behond that? And when I mean its not stable, I mean that Prime runs with an error! all the time.


If this is the case, I'm going for a 350watt powersupply which I hope solves the problem.

p.s, I got two hard drives in the computer so this could be a problem?
 
I run my 1.4 overclocked ,extra case fans with a 300 wt supply and have no probs ..dont think its your supply..
