I purchased it from a shop in my local town , tested it and it output around 580W, anyway why could my pc be freezing? i will consider getting a better psu
 
I didnt do the testing, one of the hardware specialists from collage did, it seems to boot up stable with around 240 FSB, but the pc hangs on stress tests, would it be best to increase voltage or decrease FSB? && im getting a better psu within the next month or two.
