    Asus P5B Deluxe + E6300

    I've seem to have fixed the problem where the system would give me a POST error and no video, which I thought was my x1300 overheating. Turns out it may have been the NB running too hot instead. With the same FSB @ 450 x7 multi (3.15ghz), I've managed to lower Vcore to 1.325(1.2 in cpuz)...

    Oh.. maybe I should mention that as soon as I got the card, I ran CCC's overdrive with everything stock, it made the high pitch sqeaking sound... is this normal? However, the cricketing sound I'm experiencing in 3d apps now is different, I really doubt that its the fan because in windows I turn...

    No it doesn't matter what fan speed its on...3d app = clicking, windows = fine =/ In attempting to find out more about my PSU, I came across this review http://sg.vr-zone.com/?i=2794&s=1 , 12V rails have 18A max , this PSU can also handle SLI... I'm beginning to think that my card is busted.

    How do you check amps on a specific rail? And what would be the recommended amps? and...if my value checks out to be insufficient, what PSU would you recommend? Silverstone? Antec? Tagan?

    As title says... what happened was I was on WoW, then all of a sudden I hear a weird "criket" sound coming from my rig, video disappears while sound still plays, then after a second or so my computer shuts down.

    First Time Overclocking
