i recently bought an antec smart power 500 watt supply and i was wondering if the 12v line should read at over 12.6 in bios. should i return this? even on my cheapo psu the 12v line was max 12.3 and all the other lines are within .1 of the rated. should i be concerned with this? this is my first antec power supply and i bought it because ive heard a lot of great things about antec.
 
Motherboard sensors are very good at showing deltas. However, they are often not as accurate as a $10 multimeter when it comes to the actual voltage.

If it reads 12.6v most of the time, don't worry. If it reads 12.6v, then drops to 12.0v under some load, worry.
