Well I just got my 2 1800+s and tried the one with a stepping I never heard of. 3dmark at 11.5*180 and 1.85V was a no go. Tried 2V and decided to get prime 95 and watch my voltages while that ran. As I was looking for it I restarted. Went into BIOS and as I was going to safe the stock speeds it hard shutdown. Is having my PSU on its side bad? Should I run out and get an Antec after dinner? Should I get the 430 trupower for 100 or go for the 360?

I got:
1 HDD
NF7-S
looking to do up to 2.8 ghz with 2.2V on the CPU and 2V NB
9800np
2*256 PC3200 XMS
1 optical drive

:stick: How much of a price difference is there between the 360 and the 430? Have you thought about the 550 (adjustable rails :slobber: )?

I was told the 430 had ajustable rails... I'm gona buy from CompUSA because I can get it today and it should be returnable. 550 probley costs an assload... How hard/safe is it to add a pot?

The Tru control 550 is only 15 bucks more than the 430 tru power...

Theres a tru550 and a tru control 550. They look like the same thing though...

Never mind according to them the tru control 550 is the one with pots. Its $30 more than the 430...
