Voltage readings with an A7V133-C

[mauricio]

I have an A7V133-C, the system is barely installed: TB 1.33, 128MB Ram, HDD and a GTS2. I didnt installed the rest of ram and other pci cards (sound, network) yet.

My system in NOT overclocked and I'm using very conservative memory settings.

Things are fine, but I payed attentin that the voltages: 12V, for example, oscilates between 11.97 and 12.15; it's all under those 10%, but the thing is that it oscilates to often: each reading of the probe, a new voltage (i configured it to read every 3 sec.). I´m beginning to be worried: 12.03, 11.97, 12.10, etc, etc each 3 sec. seemed a little too much variation in too few time. Nad not just the 12V, but 5, 3.3 and cpu core as well.

I rebooted and went in the BIOS then and observed the Hardware Monitoring there, and could see that the voltages oscilated quite frequent there too (all voltages readings).

However, as that is the first Athlon board I have, I dont know if it's normal or not.

The power supply is an Enermax EG-451P; I was using it with my former mobo/proc, an Asus Cubx/p3, and the voltages used to oscilate much, much less.

Have there been some problems with this mobo and voltages?

Someone that is using the mobo is getting the same thing, frequent oscilations in the voltage readings? If it's the case, is it stable anyway, is it normal?

Any help appreciated,

Mauricio

Well, my voltages stay pretty constant, but a lot of people say that Asusprobe gives way out readings, so maybe that is the cause.
It really doesn't sound like a major problem though, I would say, finish building the system and see what happens. It can't do any harm.
If you have problems, it sounds like a new power supply may be the solution.
Good luck.
