Are these voltages right?

Still trying to find the sweet spot for my OC, but I noticed the voltages (3.3, 5, 12) weren't close to the values.

I upgraded about a month ago from a 1156 socket system and the values were around the same as the voltage (3.3 would show as 3.323, 5 would show as 5.024 etc), bar a few decimals.

Mobo is a Gigabyte UD3H and the PSU is an OCZ ZS 550w.

does seem a little low,aslong as it stays stable I wouldn't worry

but if you cant stay stable id look into a better/powerfull psu maybe 650w to 750w

That's the thing, I can't really get it stable. Below is what I've had it at, runs fine for a while in benchmarks and games then I get a random bsod,

4.5 @ 1.275
4.4 @ 1.275

Is the OC making the PSU unstable? Or is it on it's way out? If so, are OCZ still honouring their warranty, since they've gone bust?
 
My voltage readings were quite low in a couple of monitoring softwares but when I checked in the bios and aida64 they were perfectly fine
 
I don't bother with software for voltage readings, they are always out.

If you want to check the main voltages then use a multimeter.

If your system is running fine then I would not worry.

Just did this.

Seems fine in here, I guess I'll just have to keep trying to get it stable.

Thanks for the opinion/help guys.
 
Yeah see no need to worry. These software reading tend to be guesses more than actual measures
