Are my PSU voltages ok?

[KennyH]

I am using a generic 300W PSU that I modded and was wondering if my voltages were ok. Here is the setup I am using right now:

-- Asus A7M266
-- Athlon 700 (green core)
-- 50X Aopen CDROM
-- 24X Lite On CDRW
-- Floppy
-- IBM 30GB 75GXP
-- 512 MB Crucial DDR PC2100
-- Netgear Nic
-- PNY Geforce 3 Ti200

Here are my voltages under load:


-- 5 Volt -- reading at 4.95V
-- 12 Volt -- reading 12.04V

How do these look? Should I include others?

I have always heard that if you are within +8% or -10% of rated that it is OK. I know this is the case for the AC wall outlet. Those readings look OK to me. I am sure someone else will know for sure.

Yep those readings are fine, well within normal.

Great, thanks guys

Within 5% is where you should be. Your voltages are excellent.

I have taken a technicians course and those readings are well within normal here are my readings

+12 is 11.43
+5 is 4.919
