PSU voltages seem off

[MrCommunistGen]

I replaced my ailing PSU with a 500W Antec SmartPower 2.0 which is ATX 2.0 tho my mobo is only ATX1.x One note: it has dual +12V rails. Anyway, the voltages in Everest seem outside of where they should be, most notably the +12V and the -5V.

Voltage Values:

CPU Core 1.75 V

+3.3 V 3.25 V

+5 V 4.95 V

+12 V 12.28 V

-12 V -11.95 V

-5 V 3.50 V

+5 V Standby 4.87 V

VBAT Battery 3.57 V

based on these numbers I would think that the 12V is a bit high, but what is really bothering me is that the -5V reads as +3.50.

I'm really worried that I might be frying something.

Thanks for any input.

Those are normal voltages.

Mine are:

CPU Core = 1.74

CPU Aux = 2.62

+3.3 = 3.52

+5 = 4.92

+12 = 11.86

-12 = -11.71

-5 = -5.15

That -5 should not be 3.3, but may have had a power spike. Everest does not update in realtime.

You can also try Motherboard Monitor for voltages and fan speeds.

The -5 always reads as somewhere around +3.5-3.7 volts and in the motherboard BIOS it reads as "None" probably because the value is out of the range it should be reporting. I feel better about the other voltages though... thanks
