dino467 Posted November 28, 2010 Share Posted November 28, 2010 What is a good program to try and read what the PSU is doing? Everest Ultimate does not even show my 12V, it also shows alot of fluctuations and a very low 3.3V. I have been having some BSOD's and am trying to narrow it down, all my other components seem to check out ok so far in another rig.This is from CPUID HW Mon..so obviously something is not being read right. Hardware monitor ITE IT87 Voltage 0 1.31 Volts [0x52] (CPU VCORE) Voltage 1 2.11 Volts [0x84] (VIN1) Voltage 2 1.15 Volts [0x48] (+3.3V) Voltage 3 4.97 Volts [0xB9] (+5V) Voltage 5 -11.97 Volts [0xBB] (-12V) Voltage 6 -13.44 Volts [0xD2] (-5V) Voltage 8 3.20 Volts [0xC8] (VBAT) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Synthohol Posted November 28, 2010 Share Posted November 28, 2010 check with a DVOM or look in the bios for closer readings. software monitoring is just imperfect. btw, there has not been a -5v for a long time, thats why that reading is off the chart Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
dino467 Posted November 28, 2010 Author Share Posted November 28, 2010 ok, now is it possible that the TX650 is not strong enough for my rig? On top of my system specs I also have this: Scythe LCD Fan Controller,3x140 LED Coolermaster fans,3x120 Scythe SY1225SL (2 on a Coolit Eco- 1 for HD cooling) and 2 Duo Orb VGA coolers LED and if it is tight..would the HX750 be enough? have been considering it or the TX850 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Wired Posted November 29, 2010 Share Posted November 29, 2010 Did you check out the PSU Finder on the left? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
dino467 Posted November 29, 2010 Author Share Posted November 29, 2010 yes I have..but it does not take into account all of the add-ons...it said 650-750, but I just ordered the HX-750..i am tired of not knowing...besides I wanted a modular PSU anyways...my 650 will now migrate to the house server puter. that is weird..after posting this I redid it..same entries...said 750-850...

Corsair Employee RAM GUY Posted November 30, 2010 Corsair Employee Share Posted November 30, 2010 The PSU Finder does factor in the typical extras like optical drives and fans, these devices are generally low wattage 5-10 watts a piece and there is some headroom built into the PSU Finder. If you calc says a particular PSU is recommended, we guarantee that its enough for the system. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
dino467 Posted December 2, 2010 Author Share Posted December 2, 2010 I must say this, I am very happy with having chose the HX750, was a little tight running the ATX and EPS through the motherboard opening. But the lack of clutter in comparisson to the TX650 is incredible. Also have been running rock solid so far,not one single BSOD (until I say this).
