As The title says after failing to run my new gpu i kept old One connected and ran hwmonitor only to find that 12v rail is at Almos 18 and v5 rail at 9 which is way over 5% i heard should be norm. Is Hwmonitor just bsing me or is it real. And how bad The situation actually is?


Thanks in advance and sorry for bad formatting atm im on my phone

Well.....I have never had hardware monitor give me bad values AS FAR AS I KNOW.

If those are the real values....I would throw that PSU out.

You can check to see if they are the real values using a voltmeter on the plugs.

.....but I don't know if I would even risk turning that PSU on again.....while connected to anything I valued.
