Might be worth just checking you haven't put both PSU cables on a single 20A PSU output rail.
If your local to blackpool, I have a spare 1250w PSU you could borrow just to rule it out mate.
Glad your happy mate, go and enjoy the cards.
When your next bored, take a look through TSM's awesome "AMD How To Guide"
its going to be very usefull to you in the future Im sure.

Yes, I realise that. The drop was from 12.15 to sub 11.5v once the PSU exceeded...

Its far more user friendly and doesn't cause half the problems afterburner seems to.
That's my advice and how I overclock my 3x 7970's up to 1260 / 1950.

With two 7970s under full load in their system, their PSU pulled 567W from the wall...
A chap on the 7970 thread just pointed out there is a new update out for it, V1.05 I think, and I can confim that on my rig, the stuttering has gone and Xfire scaling is now fixed at long last!
