I've got an antec truepower 430 running an MSI K8N NEO 2 PLAT mb.
About a year ago, I was having weird problems with temporary freezing in games. In trying to figure out the problem, I noticed my voltages were low - my 3.3 was around 3.1, my 5v was around 4.8, and my 12v was about 11.9.
I went through my case trying to see if there were any physical problems. I noticed that the blue wire from my power supply, labelled "PSU FAN MONITOR" wasn't plugged into anything. Must've slipped out, because I remember needing to plug that in.
Anyway, I found the right connector for it (SFAN2) and for whatever reason, suddenly it worked fine. My voltages were all within spec.
Now, later, I'm having the same problems. Little freezeups, crashes... so I check my voltage, and yep, it's low like it was. Only this time... that PSU monitor wire is still connected. So, there's nothing to plug in to fix it - I'm not sure what to do. Anyone have any ideas?
