Hello everyone!
I'd like to ask a question about my PSU and +12V rail value that it's showing, I don't think it's a problem but it's bugging me that I can't take my mind off of it.
I am using HWiNFO64 to check my +12V value, and when I'm browsing or doing low power stuff, it stays on 12.288V, but when I get into gaming, after like 20 minutes it'd just stay on about 1.7V while lowest it has reached was 1.6V.
How bad is this, or is it bad at all? What would happen if it got down even lower and what is the safe range?
The reason I think it's not a problem is because I'm using GTX 1050 non-Ti, which has a very low power consumption, and using an i7-2600 with 8GB DDR3, all of that on a 550w PSU, which is not some high tier quality, it's 550w Spire Silver, but I think it's even plenty for specs I have, and yet It's still bugging me if these are normal +12V values.
Thank you for your time reading through this post, I hope that I'll get my answer quickly.
Best wishes,
5traX.
