How to know if your PSU is working fine?

[colescottFTW]

I have had suspicions for over a year that my PSU is running under what it should be. Without reading Omhs, is there a way i can view any potential problems in the bios

Ohms are a measurement of resistance, not really applicable here. A multimeter would let you measure voltage directly.

Power can only be measured by putting a watt meter in line the circuit, and you would have to put a load on the power supply to actually test it, and if it can run your computer, then it isn't running at full load.

Your best bet is to use an application like hardware monitor to look at the voltages your motherboard is reporting. If your 12V and 5V don't stay fairly close to those values then it is a sign the supply is having issues.

From your BIOS you should be able to see the 5V and 12V monitors directly, usually in a section called monitoring or PC Health.

Thank you so much. I downloaded HWmonitor and says my 12v is running around 8 right now, and my 5v is running at five. Is this bad?

What PSU do you own?

Replace this PSU before it damages other components. The 12V output is too low.

Make sure you select one with an adequate wattage for your needs and allow for some future adds.

Good brands are Corsair, Seasonic, Antec, XFX (Some Corsair products are OEM by Seasonic).

You can use the hardware monitoring section of the bios.

Rest assured that if the power supply was putting out 8 volts on the 12 volt rail it would not even power the system.

As nice as HWmonitor is(use it all the time) it does not read ALL sensors right. This is a common issue with programs that can work with such a wide variety of hardware.

Example of HWmonitor not reading right.

Best bet is a multimeter see to voltage.
Black to Yellow is 12
Black to Red is 5
Black to Orange is 3.3.

Even most multimeters can not tell you the ripple on those lines.

Are you having any issues with the system?

 

[Dark Lord of Tech]

I agree , I can't believe how low that 12 is , replace ASAP.

Okay i have been wondering about my PSU for a very long time. I bought this rig last October, and i noticed the 12v rail running low around three months after i bought. They're certain game that it use to crash on, and i mean games like RO2 and it would be very rare, but i reformatted my computer due to thinking it was malware, and it turned out to be malware. I have nothing wrong with my PC. No bugs or anything! just low low frames rates, and i mean i think i should be higher than what is. I play games at 30 fps and it should be higher because i see people with the same specs rocking 60 fps in my games.

The bottom line is,the unit needs to be replaced before you damage other components.

 

[colescottFTW]

What PSU do you own?

I own some kind of Antec PSU. I believe it was a 650watt or 750 watt

 

[nukemaster]

I would check the voltage monitor section of the bios for a second opinion.

As for FPS. some games with vsync on will drop to 30fps if they can not hold 60(on 60hz screens.)

Please list your FULL system specs and what psu you are running just in case it sucks.

Will be the first thing on my list. I was wondering if that could effect frames though?

Replace this PSU before it damages other components. The 12V output is too low.

Make sure you select one with an adequate wattage for your needs and allow for some future adds.

Good brands are Corsair, Seasonic, Antec, XFX (Some Corsair products are OEM by Seasonic).

If I am seeing dual screens right?

Try to play your games in full screen for the best performance. Even trying with just one screen may improve performance depending on the game.

[strike]Pop open that system and lets see what power supply model number it is[/strike] -you posted while i was typing. Even a good unit CAN fail. the only Antec units I had fail shut them selves off and stopped giving the power good signal(boards stopped booting as a result).

I would not be willing to replace a unit based only on what HWmon says. I have seen WAY too many misreads for voltage.

Ok. are you able to check the bios to see what it says for your voltages?

Most boards have something like this.

Apparently my motherboard has a special place for a reader, but the problem is i do not have one. Where would you get these and should i get a quality one?

Checking the 12 volt line with a multimeter is VERY easy.

Again this can just show the voltage(should be within 5%) but not any ripple on the line. almost any meter will work. accuracy is not as much of an issue when you are not trying to get millivolt accurate here.

 

[colescottFTW]

I still cannot find it. I know i have wait a moment

Okay that seems fairly simple. I also cannot find anything to do with my PSU in the bios. Also what power supply should i get now?
