And that 300w is not enough for motherboard, CPU and HDD? Your GC won't always be operating at peak load.

Did u plug in the power cable correctly? In some cases the buzzing noise from psu came from the power connector not connected properly hmm.gif

save the reading, i had one FSP everest 600w, it lasted for 1yr+ before it died out... day by day it is proving harder to turn on, and i hardly press the "power" button for my pc as it is up most of the time. i'd probably blame the power trips for shortening my fsp's life sad.gif

sucky thing is i only have a 2 year warranty for FSP.

i wont recommend running SLI gtx460 on a 600w psu even on true power, as each card is like 160watts max power consumption... that leaves around 300 watts for your motherboard, processor, hard disks etc etc etc

for that problem did you off you PSU switch before you main power switch, if im not wrong it affect abit???
