I managed to get a system with 5x470 running oc on a 750w power supply, on -i 8. Its been running nonstop for 24h, so dont say that v9 has stability issues. If you know how to control the spikes, you will have a stable system, even on a low power psu like mine.
"If you know how to control the spikes" <-- Thank you for confirming exactly what everyone has been saying all along, there are power spikes.
