12.33 is fine.

Thats a tad high but its fine. Which PSU is it and where are you getting the 12v reading?

Software readings of the 12v rail(s) aren't very accurate, the BIOS is more accurate but in most cases still innaccurate.

Its a Hiper 580 Watt modular. (HPU-4K580) I am getting the 12.33 from both the BIOS and Speedfan.

The only proper way to test is with a multimeter if you have access to one. 12.33 as said is still within ATX specifications e.g. +-5% of 12v so down to 11.4v and up to 12.6v roughly.

None of this means the problems aren't down to the PSU but it doesn't prove they are either.

Ok thanks. There's no immediate threat so i'll just leave it for now.
