Not sure if my PSU voltage is up to snuff as I have been having problems with my PC.
My PSU - Corsair Builder 430W 80+ Bronze Certified ATX Power Supply
What voltage is being detected -
CPU VCore Value .888v
AVCC value 3.328b
3VCC value 3.328v
3VSB value 3.424
 
Solution
Vic 40

That is not fine with me seeing it looks like the value given in hwinfo,where it even drops to 11.4V.I know software tools are not the best to rely on,but the bios is only reading the same sensors in the same way so imo only about as good,also only reads when not under load.
If you want to be sure should you use a multimeter for most accurate results.

Looking at the 11.4V given by hwinfo would i like to replace the psu.or rma it if still in the warranty period.Can do that anyway if going for a new one,keep it as a back up or sell it if given another one or it being refurbished.

Other thing,for the ram did you enable XMP in the bios? This way will it run at 1600mhz and...

What has been happening is when i play a game i get a black screen and it says "Dvi no port" I can still hear the game and stuff, but just go the black screen. Only thing I can do is force shut down my PC via power button.
It also happens when i try to run a Furmark stress test. Don't think it's the graphics card's fault as I have 2 cards, and older 2gb one that I replaced and a new 4gb one. It happens on both cards but takes a bit longer with the 2gb card.
Here are images of my voltages from hwinfo 64bit

Other thing,for the ram did you enable XMP in the bios? This way will it run at 1600mhz and right timings for sure.You can check with cpu-z->memory tab.This is a freeware tool.Hwinfo will do as well,if you don't check "sensors-only" and open it you get to see the "system sumary",in this on the right hand side at the lower half you can see the speed as well,if given 800mhz do you need to multiply with 2.

Will be replacing PSU soon. The plug for some reason won't snap into the motherboard, so pretty sure fixed my black screen issue.
Plus the PSU is 2 years old and only 430 wats. So it's due for an upgrade, thanks everyone!

11,62 V is good since is the lower acceptable Voltage tolerance is 11,4 v and max is 12,6 v
about your connector sometimes you need to push more hard in it to be lock in place
but take care of not going to rough and brake motherboard
