Low voltages.. (especially 12v rail)

[Liquid_Static]

Hi guys. I'm a little worried by voltages my motherboard is reading from my system. These reading are identical in HWinfo, AIsuite and idles are the same in those programs as the bios. My specs are in my signature.

The screenshot is from HWInfo after running FireStrike Benchmark . The order of them is as follows: Current | Low | High | Average. I reset the log right before running the benchmark.

All the voltages are within spec, assuming they are correct. You need to use a DMM if you want to know for sure.

I suppose they are, but 11.424 is very close to 5% limit. The main question is how accurate these readings are.

What psu do you have?

A corsair HX750 gold.

Hmm, should be a solid unit. Just ran a little test myself with linx and unigine heaven, 12V remained very steady at 12.192V. Mobo is P8Z77M-Pro, should have same io-sensor as your board.

I'd probably ask around on Corsair forums, see if you can get a rep to give his opinion.

I emailed corsair and they said they want me to RMA it...even sent a prepaid shipping label.

had a tx750 (seasonic oem) deliver similar voltage (11.34v to be exact) on gpu +12 via hwinfo and it would cause the gtx580 to turn off in middle of gaming.

corsair rma was a breeze. one day turn around upon arrival. replacement should be here mid next week.
