weekendsrule32 Posted January 8, 2010 Report Share Posted January 8, 2010 I just built a core i5 system with the above motherboard. The motherboard has a OC Genie function where it automatically over clocks the processor and the ram. I had it over clocking my i5 to 3.36 GHz fine until i added a geforce 9800gtx graphics card. now when that function is activated, the computer starts, but shuts off 10 seconds later. It seemed like a power thing, so i unplugged the 9800gtx and tried again. Same thing. Anyone have experience with this motherboard and the OC Genie or just have an idea? I have a 600 watt PS by Ultra. I miss the added performance. :( Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It could well be the PSU never heard of Ultra to be honest,if you are upgrading PSU try a brand like OCZ,corsair, Be Quiet!, Seasonic, Antec or Enermax all good brands of PSU.
