Darius Silver Posted December 30, 2012 Share Posted December 30, 2012 Well I'm not to sure if this normal for this PSU, but my 12v regulation seems to be kinda bad, but not out of spec. HWMonitor reads it at 11.532 - 11.581. Does this warrent a RMA? I don't know if a low 12v would hurt my system, but it pains me to pay good money for a PSU that under-performs vreg of my old HX650 (12v @ 11.93 if I remember correctly) :( http://www.overclock.net/content/type/61/id/1193517/ I could be nitpicking, but I was just hoping to see these digital PSU's hitting 12v/5v/3.3v like crazy. *Edit* While I try to fix the image *Edit again* Or am I taking too much stalk from a software program's readings?

crispy345 Posted December 30, 2012 Share Posted December 30, 2012 Try testing it with a multimeter, the BIOS and software voltage readings are sometimes reading wrong, so for the best measurement, use a multimeter. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
peanutz94 Posted December 30, 2012 Share Posted December 30, 2012 What does the BIOS report? It's going to be more accurate than software but the next best thing if you dont have a meter. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Darius Silver Posted December 30, 2012 Author Share Posted December 30, 2012 Ahh I feel like an idiot. I completely forget about the voltage readings from bios. 3.264, 4.971, 11.891. Glad I asked around here before making an erroneous RMA. Thank you! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
