Antec True Power Trio TP3-650 650W ATX12V SLI Certified CrossFire Ready Active PFC Power Supply with Three 12V Rails

-- Any good for overclocking a Core i7 920 to 3.8ghz?

What do you guys think?

Thats hard to tell really. You can look into the reviews on the unit and see how good the ripple is on the 12V rails under high loads. Thats about the only way you'll get a good indication of how stable the power is. The more stable the power is the better it will be for OCing.

You can get better power supplies for the price. The Antec TruePower Trio isn't that great of a PSU:

The Antec Earthwatts 650 or the BFG LS-550 are in the same price range as the Trio 650 but are of significantly better quality:

BFG Tech LS-550 550W PSU - $67
Antec Earthwatts 650W PSU - $70
