guys i raised my Voltage up to 1.80, then the computer runs fine, and i am running the FSB at 143. For some reason, my PSU keeps blowing when i am running a game, or something cpu intensive.. out of nowhere the computer just shuts off,. then i try to turn it back on and i see 1 of my led fans light up for like half a second.. then i smell the fan from the back and it smells like the same when my monitor blew... i put in a new 400watt one and i turned the voltage down but left the FSB at the same speed. IT HAPPENS AGAIN When im playing need for speed 2. now im on another computer because i have no more power supplies.. i need real help... thanks

Sounds as if you have something attached to a power connector that is drawing too much amps.
Maybe a wire is grounded to the case, or a component causing this condition.
