I have had ocasional blue screen with my rig when gaming hard. After reading this forum and numerous other forums have concluded that my tru 550 is the problem, so ocz powerstream 520 here I come. ( Don't want to spend 200$ on psu, pcp 510 costs too much). BTW,my 12 v rail drops to 10.4 when booting and after boot 11.2 or so.

I also want to get an x800xt to replace my 9800 pro AIW. With a powersteam 520 on my DFI board, with the new vid card, will I have the juice to run stable and do a moderate OC?

I pass memtest, run sp2 etc.

Is this a solid combo? Are people having issues with the nforce 3 and x800xt's?

Thanks for your thoughts
 
I only have the powerstream 420w, upgraded from an Antec 380s that came with my Sonata case. My voltages are now rock solid stable and it's at least as quiet, as far as I can telI.

edit: before I get flamed, the upgrade was because I needed the adjustable rails.
 
the 520 is good for pretty much anything but SLI...can get iffy there ...although I have seen guys run SLI on them... ;)
 
thanks for the reply, will order the powerstream this coming friday.
