    That PSU is very powerful its perfect, where did you get it, I want one:D :D

    Loosen is to make the numbers higher i.e. If you are at 2-2-2-5 try 2.5-3-3-8. just put them very loose to get clock speed up and the tighten them afterwards but dont leave them to loose. Try and get a even balance of Timings/Clockspeed

    Doesnt matter man DFI state that NO 20Pin PSU is enough, it must be 24pin.
    Id reccomend one of these babys

    Up your multi to 10 and see can u run 10x300 even. Cause thats a perfect system at that!!
    Congrats you have an FX beater!!!
    Then run this program in the 1million and 32million options to test stability for the moment.http://files.extremeoverclocking.com/file.php?f=36

    Um, I'd have a quick Google for reviews and stuff before I'd go saying that.

    From here:
    So your PSU is basically Aspire 500W rebadged to a generic 550W?
    I can tell you three glaring differences between your PSU (Eye-T 550W/Aspire 500W) and the OCZ Powerstream 520W that demonstrate the differences in quality between the power supplies.

    1-2% load voltage regulation (OCZ) vs. 10% load regulation (Aspire)
    28A/40A/33A on the +3.3/+5/+12V rail (OCZ) vs. 20A/24A/25A (Aspire) -- we're talking about sustainable regular power here, not peak (even though peak current for the Aspire PSU is a lot higher)
    3 year unlimited warranty + 2 year limited warranty (OCZ) vs. 1 year warranty (Aspire)

    It's sustainable current and steady voltage that generally matters mostly for newer high-end systems. And that goes double for overclocking.

    Seriously? How much? Score cheers man saved me twenty quid. Which one?

    The Eye-t is a decent PSU for €50 and has reasonably strong rails, I didnt spot that its only 20 pin and it shouldnt be used on a 24 pin atx 2.2 Mobo,

    I put a Hiper 580watt PSU in an opty system for my Dad and its great completely silent and oficially supported by nvidia for SLI its only €90 inc vat from OcUk that Peats price doesnt include Vat unfortunatey:(

    Its €99 in PC World, so a better deal considering its retail. Best part about that PSU is the cabling and modular design, so much neater!

    Yeah its the best PSU i have ever seen dark chrome and chromed 120mm fan and completely silent and enough adapters to power around 4 hdds and 4 optical drives:D
