This morning when I woke up, I went to my computer and it was behaving very oddly. It was doing everything about as slow as a 500mhz Celeron that is trying to burn a CD while you're using it for normal things. I rebooted thinking some software had gone crazy and was raping my CPU usage, but to no avail. I took a look at CPU-Z and freaked out. Everything was going crazy, HTT, CPU speed and Vcore were all jumping all over the place. I quickly shut down and unplugged the power cable and hit power again to drain the remaining power. Powered back on and same thing. I have a Vantec fan controller that lights up on the front panel with my 120mm Sunon and 3 80mm's on it that I figure draws a bit of power, so I powered back down and unplugged that whole thing (no fans or the lights are drawing power) and undervolted my CPU to 1.35 and backed down to default speeds, so now my Ninja is running passively with the side panel off. The voltage seems to have stabilized somewhat, but still jumps a little bit. At least it's staying between 1.3 and 1.4 and nothing else is jumping around. Before, I saw it dip down to 1.26 and up to 1.54 in the minute or so I watched it before shutting down.
So, do you guys think my Liberty 400w isn't enough, or is something else going on here?
I've had this same build for over a month with no power problems. Specs are in my sig. Thanks.
