So, I've recently noticed that since upgrading my PSU and installing some new case fans, HWmonitor is now telling me that the reliable voltage limit is at 1 whenever I play something like Rainbow Six siege. My specs are an i7-7700 (turbo boosted), GTX 1060 6GB and my PSU is a Seasonic focus plus 550w. I don't remember it doing this before I upgraded my PSU.

This anything to be worried about or is it normal? I don't use HWmonitor a ton so I'm not even really sure what some of the readings mean.

Software doesn't read voltages correctly.
I see. So, probably an error on HWmonitor's end then? It's weird, because it didn't show it when I was on my old cooler master PSU. But that one was less wats and generally worse. So, it didn't make sense to me is all. And I haven't changed anything with my GPU since then.
