When I use sapphire's trixx overclocking program to OC, my neo320 watt psu starts buzzing at me. Only when I put it on silent mode (severely underclocked) does it stop buzzing. Is this indication that the psu isn't pumpin enough power or something?
 
320 watts is really stretching it. I doubt that's what is causing the buzzing, though.

Well, just get a 500 watt and everything will be good regardless.

Seriously. Save yourself some worries and just get a solid 500w PSU. As many people, especially in the Power Supply section, say "never EVER build a solid system and skimp on the PSU." $100 bucks now can save you $500 later.
 
Pick up one of those Xclio 450/500W power supplies for $40-55 from Newegg. Those will do the trick and serve you well for the price. My old 450W is over a year old and is still running great even with a X1800XT for 5-6 months.
 
320W power does seem bit low, so you might want to change it.

I must still add that even with my old PSU (nexus 500W) and with my new PSU (seasonic 600W) some applications do make my PSU scream like a stabbed pig :confused:
