Hmm, My CPU overclocks are crap now since i had my 8800GTS. With my 7900GS i had my C2D at 3.0ghz and it was stable. Now with the 8800GTS i have to run it stock. Is it a PSU issue?

If you are buiding a new system, try one of these instead (the 400 or 500W units that are in the first 3 on the list):
iStar PSUs

They are at least as good as the XClio and have the activePFC and autoranging AC sensing that are left off of the XClios for the US market.

The Enhance ENP-5150GH is also an excellent PSU w/ aPFC and auto AC sensing. See the reviews on http://www.JonnyGuru.com (it's the same as the Silverstone version - Enhance OEMs for them).

Not building a new rig. will the Corsair HX520W 520w be enough for my rig to OC the hell out of the video card and cpu'?

The Corsair is basically the same as Seasonic - good PSU but expensive. If you are just replacing an insufficient PSU, then my recommendations above also hold.

Money a concern? Get the Enhance.

Want a little better built unit, longer warranty, and modular cables? Get the Corsair.
