I'm running a P4 1.6A currently at 2.4 @ 1.55v, 3 fans, 2 7200 RPM HDs, DVD, CDRW, Matrox G450, and an Audigy. But I have a 300W PSU and my 12v line goes down to 11.584v under load. I can't go above 2.4 because if I increase the voltage my computer just resets. Time for a new PSU?
My 300W PSU runs very hot so I'm wondering what would be a decent PSU? I've replaced the stock PSU fan w/ a low db fan because I hate noise. So I need a quiet, low heat, strong PSU. Any suggestions on what PSU and where to buy it? (At a good price please
I've already dropped $350 on upgrades and I'm broke.)
Would getting a new PSU even help me to OC some more?
Also can I just use a seperate PSU to power some stuff? (I have an older one, I think a 250W). I have an Asus P4b266-C which has the EZ plug which allows you to plug in a regular plug instead of a P4 connector.
