sli 7800gts, x2 3800, and all ther toher stuff, this thing is acting up


it is surging voltage, i mean, ill idle, adn with a multimeter. see the voltage go down almost to 11.5, or up to 12.3, and it ahs the adjustments in back, but this is at idle, yet if i load it, its a continous 12.12v

i ahvent polayed wioth the voltage adjusters in the back yet, should i, as i dont want to, do i have to, and if i do, will this void the psus warranty, also, it ahs them in the back

Hello,

No adjusting the POTS will not void the warranty.

You should be checking the voltages as outlined here: http://www.bleedinedge.com/forum/showthread.php?t=7069

What are your readings?

now under load im getting 11.97, and thats with a old setup, a x800xl, and a single cpu a64 3k+, and 1 hdd,


my sli rig hates it, has boot problems, and it runs fine under low wattage, anything high, it hates it

Well..if its running 11.97 under load then there is nothing wrong.

What is your SLI rig? What are all the components in it?

Use this calculator on your SLI rig: www.extreme.outervision.com

What kinds of numbers do you come up with at 100% load? You should also dial in your CPU overclock on the calculator.
