Do I need a new PSU?

I'm running Speedfan and the voltage chart shows that my 5v lines are running 4.14-4.2v, 12v going 11.8-12.1v, and 3.3 at 3.3-3.34v I'm concerned about the 5v lines since it's running so low of a voltage. Is it time to get a new PSU? BTW, I'm using some generic looking Logic 350 PSU, about 2 years old. Thanks.

well a lot of the time 3rd party programs get the voltages totally wrong.
The only true way to test them is to use a multimeter.
