Good PSU readings?

[OrangeParktech]

I have a 500w PSU, and i was curious as to what is considered a real good "stable" PSU.

Here is how mine reads in MBM5 and CoreCenter from MSI.

3.3v 3.3 (constant)
+5v 5.08 (constant)
+12v 12.02 (moves to 11.96 sometimes. lowest ive ever seen it is 11.90)

VERY good, perfectly fine. what band/model?

Try reading the voltages in bios, they are much more accurate.

Exact same readings from Bios, other than the +5 jumps from 5.08 to 5.10 occasionally.

PSU is a 500w Modular X-Connect from Ultra.


I notice that you (zakee) have the same RAM i do. I am running it at 260 1:1 with my processor at 3-4-4-10. 2.85v. Think it would be better or worse to run divider and put timings back down like you have?

id put the devider on, im almost positive it gives better performance. you should be able to lower your ram voltages too, im at 220MHz 2-4-4-7 with 2.75 volts. i dont think it would hurt anything though.

whoops, i didnt even know my own ram timings....i guess it was 2-3-3-6 make sure you are running at 1t also, huge performance increase.

i have it 1:1 right now with 260FSB at 3-4-4-7. I just read that going from 2.5 to 3 is fine, because the extra 100Mhz of my overclock is worth more than the CAS on the RAM. I hope its true.
