Corsair SF-450 low voltage

Hello everyone,

 

12v rail measured by a good Fluke multimeter is always near 11.86v load or idle. (setup is nothing crazy, i5 6500+gtx 1060)

 

I remember when I first got it, voltage was around 11.92v. (still not perfect but I convinced myself to keep it)

 

This is way too off based on every review I've seen on the internet and it seems that it's degrading somehow.

 

I know it's still in ATX specs but is this a bad batch or something?

 

Should I keep it or return it ?

Hello there! This isn't a bad batch and it's perfectly fine. It's in fully working condition.

 

As someone who used to create custom PSU cables before I joined CORSAIR, 11.86 is perfectly fine. The cables I made without any capacitors on it gave me 11.7v performance and have been running for years, still constantly at 11.7v so you're not going to have an issue.
