i dont think its the psu...cos a psu is just a psu, but you should get ure psu checked out by a pro, you dont want any damage done to your equipment. PC world normally check things like that for free, althought to be honest i hate pc world, rip everyone off

well that was one **** of a contradictory sentence.


huh, i cant even find the brand name of your psu. i googled it and nothing. so i would put that at fault, probably has crappy amperage on the 12v line.
