Hello

I just finished building a Ryzen gaming rig today and upon checking my 12V, 3.3V, and 5V from BIOS and in Windows OS and in game and benchmark, both BIOS and HWinfo64 showed 4.880V max. Is this really concern? Will my power supply or computer going to blow up?

What voltage are you looking at in Hwinfo?

5v has nothing to do with games and benchmarks and it is used by the usb ports and storage devices
Anyway for anything that uses the 5v rail the acceptable minimum is about 4.5v so if that is the voltage you are looking at you are fine
