xpeter, did you ever solve your cold boot problem? I just got a new mobo and still have the cold boot problem when overclocking. I ordered a new PSU (Antec True480) to see if it solves my problem.

No I still haven't solved my problems and it's still acting strange, as I wrote above the ENERMAX tech support
advised me to return the PSU for RMA but I still haven't done this and want to make some more testing.

What is your problem with cold boot like? Is it doing the same strange things as I described above?

My problem is very much like yours. I get a little more variance on the 5v rail than you do. Anway, it is causing random reboots with my GA-8INXP so out it goes. It is fine (for the most part) when I leave everything stock. My Antec should be here on Friday. I am going to RMA the Enermax and when I get a new one I will save it for my next system or I may sell it here.

Don't forget to post here the message about the ANTEC and if it has solved the problem, than we will be 100% sure that
the ENERMAX PSU is the fault.
