Hello everyone,
I don't have any overclocking experience, so I'm wondering if the LC Power LC600H 600W PSU could be sufficient to boost the Q8200 to 2.33GHz, at least up to 2.7GHz. I'm reaching out because I'd like someone to help me with the overclocking process and want to avoid any issues afterward. My setup includes: a Q8200 running at 2.33GHz, 4GB DDR2 RAM, an MSI nGTX470 Twin Frozr II, a 1TB HDD, and the LC Power LC600H with 600W output.

Nope. You can find good quality units such as a Corsair CX600 or EVGA 500B for similar prices. Occasionally you'll find amazing offers like an EVGA 750 B2 for $49 (after rebate). These offer much better quality than the Corsair and EVGA models, along with higher wattage and modular cables.

LC Power is recognized for low quality, so I wouldn't take that chance.

No problem at all... was it worth it for $40?
