Really? You're recommending a $29 power supply for someone with a GPU and who plans to OC? Fail.

To the OP- You can only OC Intel CPU's with a "k" at the end of the model number, i.e. 3570k.

Actuall, you can overclock a non-k CPU, i've done it myself. The OC just isn't as stable and fluid as a K CPU
