Weird Voltages on my ASUS A7V333

AragornXtreme · 07-15-02, 05:09 PM

hi guys, i've built recently my new pc with an asus a7v333 and I've noticed that some of my voltages are very weird. First of all, at the BIOS 1.75 core is selected but MBM reports 1.79. Is this ok?
What most worries me is the fact that the -12.00 is running at -13.40 according to MBM 5, which doesn't look pretty good. All other voltages are also slighted deviated from the normal readin (say -5,62 for the -5.0) Can anyone tell me is this is all ok or if I might be damaging my stufF?
Also, can someone please explain me what all are these voltages related to? I only know for a fact that Vcore is the voltage of the CPU, but I have no clue on what are the rest of the voltages... thanks

You aren't damaging your stuff at all. Asus boards read vcore funny is all. It reads slightly higher. The other voltages look very good. 5.65 on the 5 volt rail!? Damn! What PS do you have? And 13 and change on the 12 . . . Very nice! When the voltages read high, it's nothing really to worry about. It's when they read lower than rated, you have to worry, because that can affect system stability.

Well according to MBM my +5.00V is reading +4.92V, which is somewhat low... do i have to worry about this?

4.92v is nothing to worry about. As long as you don't go 5% below 5v it's ok.
