If you're worried about your voltages, get a multimeter first. Mobo voltage readings are not always accurate.

What do your 5v and 3.3 Volt lines look like? Those are the ones you might want to worry about since the amount of fluctuation is much more sensitive than it is on the 12v line.

What PSU are you using? (brand, model)

And like some of the posts have pointed out already, don't trust the mobo's readings - get a meter if you want to be sure.
