BadNizzle: Impressive memory clocks!!! I want them in my RIG

Regarding my CF I'm a bit struggling with this setup right now ...
I have sudden switch downs of my rig when doing CF tests! I'm looking for a cause, but so far I eliminated HD3870 cards, they fine in single mode, my CPU is out of equation as well. That leaves me to mainboard and PSU as to most likely suspects. Tried hooking up PCIe power connections to another PSU, but still same switch downs. I will try another PSU tomorrow, but this is killing me

I can bench CF at stock, but even then sometimes it will cut the power. When OCed to 877/2600 I'm struggling to open 3DMark06!! In best case it will sometimes finish first run ....

PS. As you probably already noticed I flashed both cards and they are fully stable at 877 and 892MHz respectively

S1nn3r: Sorry to hear that you still struggling... I'm now having a small fight as well
My only advice is to get another CPU and/or memory to test them out... Otherwise you mobo might be faulty.... (or incompatible with RAM)
Lightman that is almost certainly your psu.
I was running an Opty 170 @ 2850 with 2 7900GT's (evga superclock) and my psu at the time (Antec neo-he 550) was flakey. And that was a solid psu IMO. Replaced it with my OCZ gamex700 and all issues disappeared.

Can you try hooking up that 2nd psu you have to just the vga cards?

I haven't got any figures but I've read at a few places that overclocking a cpu uses a disproportionate amount of power.

@mAJORD, have you tried going back to the F1 bios?
I found mine to be very stable, just missing too many goodies.
