    Default i5 stability issues

    Hi all

    i have just built myself a new i5 system
    cpu:i5-2320
    mobo:asus p8z68-v
    http://www.asus.com.au/Motherboards/...t_1155/P8Z68V/
    gfx: hd6950-1gb oc(gigabyte) crossfire
    http://www.gigabyte.com.au/products/...px?pid=3693#ov
    ram:16gig kingston hyperx gensis 1600mhz-http://www.scorptec.com.au/computer/...1600c9d3k2/8gx
    psu:xigmatex 800watt
    case: thermaltake kandalf http://www.thermaltakeusa.com/Produc...6&ID=1411#Tab0
    hdd: 1tb wd cavier black accelerated with 40gig ssd
    sound card: asus xonar dx

    do you think that 800watt is is enough for my setup or is the i5 bottlenecking my system?

    my issue is that i am having is when i am gaming (espically bf3) i get a bsod on exit of the game saying the atidriver crashed (the oc on the cards is factory) also i get an iastor.sys bsod which i belive that may be due to the ssd caching i have set up
    ps i have not had the ati driver crash in some time now but the iastor.sys bsod has become more frequent
    i can have the pc at idle(internet,movies) for days with no stability issues

    i will update the post with driver details when i get home tonight

    thanks in advance

    Smart Results on your SSD.

    And its not the PSU unless you paid like $30 for it, 800W from a good company is plenty. I'm running a very similar rig with a huge overclock on an 850 Watt psu.
