Hey fellas, it seems my PSU is running out of juice or something. I have a Antec SmartPower 400 watt and it's running hot with a upgraded exhaust fan. I've been running this setup for a while and have been stable but I will be OC'ing beyond 3200+ pretty soon so I dunno if this PSU can keep up.
These are my rails:
My VCore flucates from 1.62-1.70 pretty often.
3.3V = usually stays between 3.23-3.25 mainly 3.25 tho
5V = 4.92 most of the time sometimes 4.95
12V = most unstable volt line i have sometimes dips to 11.73 but mainly sitting 11.80 and 11.86
-12V = fluctuates but usually at -12.61
-5V = at -5V
PSU Ratings:
+5V +12V +3.3V
38A 18A 28A
+5 and +3.3 combines to make 240W Max
all rails combined for 380W max
My rig:
2500+ at 11x200 with stock voltage (1.65)
MSI K7N2-L with v5.6 Bios
2x256 Mushkin Lvl.2 PC3200 ram at 2.7V
Radeon 9800 Pro stock
Swiftech MCP600 pump (for water-cooling)
SB Live! Value
48x CD-RW
Floppy Drive
80mm sparkle fan for the PSU
80 Vantec Tornado on the radiator
80mm Tt Smart Case Fan II for the front
Vantec Nexus Fan Controller
WD 160GB Ultra100 8mb
WD 40GB Ultra100 2mb
Also I've used up all the molex connecters from the power supply. I've been wondering if something is wrong with my psu or I just need more power. Oh and, would a Antec 550 watt be too much or if otherwise can you guys give me suggestions.
