Hi friends
i've a iBall 400w PSU for powering my rig.4 my rig's config see signature.
My prob is dat whenever i oc my proccy beyond 2.2GHz,sometimes it shows in the BIOS that 'Óverclocking failed' but if it boots up it runs fine.i've stress tested my proccy @ 2.5GHz & it was perfectly stable though temp was 60c.

I've even run my pc using 2 SMPS, the iBall 400w powering mobo+proccy and a Intex 400w powering the drives,but still faced the above prob though frequency was less.

So wat do u ppl think,is my PSU the main culprit that preventing me from Ocing smoothly.will a Zebronics PSU be enough to power my rig and support oc.

recently i've set up RAID 0 on my 2 160 GB hdd.whenever i boot into any OS (Xp or Vista ),windows performs a disk check,why does this happen.

Dun go for anormal Zebronics PSU as itll be somewhat same as ur current one.
Instead invest for some 1.6k for platinum 400 from Zebronics. Its real 400.
Orelse u can go for Platinum 500 for 2.2k
If u have more money to spend then get a powersafe 500W for 3k.
