My brand new Seasonic S12II Bronze 430W output 12.55V (measured with a multimeter) under light Windows usage, which decreases under load to 12.39V. In theory it's within the 5% the specs call for but I don't know what the ripple is, so it might cross it. Either way it worries me.
I don't think I've ever seen a PSU go that high, both quality ones or cheapos. It's certainly a disappointment coming from Seasonic.
What are the worst voltages you saw from your PSUs under normal conditions? Would you consider this PSU acceptable or faulty?
