[SOLVED] PSU Voltage Questions

Hiya

Just finished putting together a new pc. I have a Antec TruePower Trio 650W. I'm a little confused about what speedfan is telling me about my voltages. (see screenshot) Is this anything to worry about?

They voltages are wayyyyyy out.

Check in the BIOS and see what they are.

Hiya

I checked and it doesn't report what they are but say they are all "OK".

What I suspect is that your sensor on the +12 line is not reporting properly or you would not be able to use the computer with that if it was a true reading.

Just for kicks, try SensorviewPro and see what it reports for this area.

See if this one reports anything. If it is a faulty sensor, then don't worrry about it, just use the rig.

Thanks for the reply, i tried sensorview got 0 degrees for all the sensors from that.

The pc itself works fine. Worrying over nothing?

Faulty sensors are quite common. Your plan works....don't fix it if the computer is not broken and have a great evening.
