I have this 500W for my PS. 34A on the 12V rail. My system is currently:

A64 3000+
1 gig DDR500 RAM
GF Ti4400
120GB WD HDD
80GB WD SE HDD
Audigy 2
Leadtek TV tuner card
CD burner
DVD burner

Is 11.58 too low? Not overclocking currently.

DUDE! You're within 5%. Be happy. Most consider 10% acceptable.

Bah, sorry. I kept on seeing people with at least 11.80 and I thought, "damn, I'm in trouble."

If those readings are coming from your mobo, get a multimeter. Mobo readings are not always accurate.
