help me with my volt values plz

Your vakues are a little off. I dont know what voltage your CPU should be running at but your +3.3V and +5V are way too low and your +12V is too high. You +5V standby is concerning too.

I would take note of these voltages and go into your BIOS and double check them. I wouldn't be surprised if you have some stability issues if your voltages are indeed these values
 
well my PSU is a piece of crap and i know it
but isn't there any danger if i edit these value from BIOS
and what value range should i stick to ?
thanks
 
you cant edit voltages in the bios.... ive never seen anything like it anyway.
It all comes down to what your PSU feeds your system
 
ok now i'm confused
this is a picture of the readings of Easytune 5 & Everest at the same time
which is more accurate
and there is nothing about this in the BIOS !


some values are not shown in Easytune
what do they do ?
are they important ?
 
the values shown in one and not the other just mean that the program doesn't show them... its no biggie.
its tough to say which is more accurate because the two programs might have different refresh rates and and they might be showing the voltage at very slight different times.
I think the bios is your best bet for looking your voltages
 
it doesnt really matter which is more right than the other, the fact still remains that your voltages are undervolting in some cases and overvolting in others, these are both as dangerous as the other, solution.... new PSU. doesnt have to be a mega great one, just one that can cope and is respectable. Your system isnt too HIGH end, kinda in the middle, a bit like mine, my recommendation = spend a max of £40
 
Thanks for the tip dragon
and Hairy_Lee my BIOS doesnt show any voltages
only has the option to add more voltage to the CPU,AGP,RAM
but thanks for the help anyway

and another simple question
what is the worst thing that could happen ? and that are the odds of it happening ?

the worst thing that could happen is that each and every component dies spontaneously from under/overvolting the likliness of that scenario actually happening are very slim, but hat is happening already is you are shortening the life span of your hardware quite dramatically by under/overvolting them. This may not be aparent now, but when you CPU or RAM gives out 2 years earlier than you would have hoped and you have to buy more...

another scenario is that due to the low quality of the PSU, it probably doesnt sport any surge protection or anythign like that, so if you ever have a lightning storm and your PC is on.... your in big danger, becasue things go POP VERRRY easily then...

thanks for the info
i really needed to know that
EDIT: but you didn't really tell me what does every value mean !?

sorry about that i forgot to mention i've had an issue with my motherboard regulator ,,,,, it smoked
i changed it once and it smoked again
i changed it again and it has been working fine until now since 3 weeks
now the question is ... could it be it that is making problems with the values?
FYI the dude took another regulator from another Mobo and replaced it in my Mobo

Ouch, that sucks. Perhaps you should test a different PSU to see if it's the PSU causing the problem, or if it's the mobo.
