nothing is really wrong with it,its just running a bit low on the voltage rails

for future upgrades/overclocking/stability's sake you could upgrade psu, however if its working now then why bother unless it isnt stable when overclocking (if you even plan to do so....it probably wont be looking at your +5v line)

Thanks for the explanation. :)

The 5v rail goes only that low, on average it stays at 4.85v while the 3.3v rail is dead-on no matter what the load. I probably won't be doing much OC'ing and at the budget i had to work on, the 300w was all i could afford. At least i know it's a good PSU (per Tom's hardware) and has built-in overload protection.
