Odd voltage

chameleon · 8 Jun 2006 at 14:15

I've been keeping an eye on my voltages and fans n stuff with MBM5 all my voltages are pretty much spot on except for the -5v which is reading 3.55v. (The +5 is spot on) Could this cause any problems?

Nope.

All you should really bother monitoring is the 12v line.

Are you sure you don't have MBM5 monitoring the 3.3V rail?

Download something like Everest (google for the Home Edition) for a comparison.

Depending on the mobo , MBM5 can confuse certain readouts

On my DFI NF3 it displays the LDT Voltage under the Chipset and vice versa.

As above suggestion , use Everest to confirm.

Cheers,

iirc the -5 rail should read between +4.8volts and +5.2volts.. anything outside that i believe you may start having a few unpredicable problems.

What Mobo do you have..

It's always best to spec your rig whenever you post a problem unless it's to do with your gf in GD in which case pictures are a must
