probably just as you have already said, a cheap generic psu that is going south on you. It might be that it is getting to warm and not being able to provide enough juice on the 3.3 rail. Best idea is to replace the unit asap and not risk your hardware more than need be.

Also consider OCZ Powerstream, top notch PSU with adjustable rails :)
