Re: psu Problem
That is not normal for a power supply. Too bad when you sent it back, you didn't opt for a quality brand name power supply. Hiper is not a quality power supply IMHO and if those voltages are accurate, could cause damage to your system.

Re: psu Problem
ok...if it was a problem really from psu wouldnt it be doing it constantly...
also 14.36 is it a safe voltage for the motherboard or it could burn things up if it is not safe then why it didnt damage anything... thanks anyway |

Re: psu Problem
anything above 12.4 volt would make me nervous
yes you can burn up most PC components with erratic dirty voltage Hiper is not doing a very impresive job in my book I would look to the antec Trio 650 watt or thermaltake toughpower 750 watt
