    Potential Power Issue?

    Hi All

    I've been having a few (what i think are) power issues lately with my PC. With a modest i7 920 OC (3.8) applied the computer every now and again doesn't power on correctly until i press the reset button. The problem doesnt occur when the OC is disabled but i'm struggling to determine the cause of the issue.

    Any thoughts/suggestions before I splash out £60 on an Antec TP New 650w before today only shuts tomorrow?

    mainly because the tp new 650w has had countless good reviews and seems to be one of the best out there currently for the price?
