Wired Posted March 27, 2009 Share Posted March 27, 2009 Yes, that's well within spec. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
kuroha Posted March 28, 2009 Author Share Posted March 28, 2009 even if this is happen frequently? i'm sorry if i'm persistent, because i never had this problem before with my former PSU :): Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
FEAR6655 Posted March 28, 2009 Share Posted March 28, 2009 That fluctuation is only 0.064v and is fairly normal as the load the PC puts on the PSU varies. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Corsair Employee RAM GUY Posted March 30, 2009 Corsair Employee Share Posted March 30, 2009 As long as the 12v rail on the PSU stays within 11.4v-12.6v, then the PSU is within the ATX spec (5%) and there should be nothing to worry about. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

kuroha Posted May 12, 2009 Author Share Posted May 12, 2009 sorry if i'm starting this old thread again, but i'm just read some review about HX620 and i found that all of their's (reviewer) HX620 has maximum voltage fluctuation just somewhere between 0.01v-0.02v. Looking to my case, it seems a bit too much isn't? (0.064v) some link to the article : http://www.tweaktown.com/articles/958/corsair_hx620w_modular_psu_the_best_power_supply_ever/index3.html http://www.overclock3d.net/reviews.php?type=3&id=136&page=6&desc=corsair_hx620_620w_modular_psu http://www.bit-tech.net/hardware/2006/09/10/corsair_hx620_coolermaster/3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Not all PSUs will have the same amount of voltage fluctuation and the same PSU could have different amounts of fluctuation depending on the system its powering. Also keep in mind that if you are using software or the BIOS to measure the voltages then you are measuring the voltage after its been regulated by the motherboard, and not the voltage of the PSU itself. You would need to use a multimeter to get an accurate reading of the PSU voltages. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
