I currently have an enermax whisper 431watt p/s (which is just about three years old). The 12v rail drops pretty low when I attempt to overclock both my a64 and the 6800gt (11.6v using mbm, sometimes when it drops this low the pc will reboot or shutdown). I have been thinking about just getting another 400watter and running two powersupplies. My question is how are these Super-Flower Silent TT-450SS (the one with 18a on the 12v)? Right now I can get one for 28bucks shipped.

Thanks,
Flak
 
It's time to look, if it causes the rig to reboot.
Keep it, however, because that number is still in spec. It should work fine on another machine that isn't pushed quite as hard.

Do not replace an Enermax with a $28 pos. You think you have problems now? Either get another Enermax, or an Antec Trupower, an Enhance, or one of the other respected brands. Shell out the money now, and you'll have a psu that will last another three years...or ten, if you are lucky.
