Motherboard or PSU?

I have an IC7-G, P4 2.8C, Vantec 420 PSU, and a Radeon 9800 Pro along with two sticks of PC4000 Corsair XMS RAM.

If I run both sticks of RAM in dual channel mode, my video card artifacts. If I run them in non dual channel mode, it works for a while but eventually artifacts.

I've run Memtest on both sticks (seperately and together) for over three days, and the video card is brand new (and was tested by ATI three times.)

At this point I figure it has to be either my PSU not pushing out enough power, or a bum Northbridge. Can anyone give me any insight either way so that I can hopefully replace the bad part first instead of replacing both?

Thanks.
 
could be overheating?

also, i'd try running it with a different set of ram if ou can, just to make sure.
