Are this good voltages in idle for Evga G2 850W? Shouldn`t voltages be tighter, especially that on 12V, more closley to 12V?

yah thats fine, software voltage monitoring is a bit iffy too so i would say its good

I spent $2500 on building my PC and all i do with it is play no games atm & watch anime at 1080p(finally) watch YT and write essays...  nothing, it just sits there collecting dust...

Builds:

The Toaster Project! Northern Bee!

 

The original LAN PC build log! (Old, dead and replaced by The Toaster Project & 5.0)

"Here is some advice that might have gotten lost somewhere along the way in your life. 

 

#1. Treat others as you would like to be treated.

#2. It's best to keep your mouth shut; and appear to be stupid, rather than open it and remove all doubt.

#3. There is nothing "wrong" with being wrong. Learning from a mistake can be more valuable than not making one in the first place.

 

Follow these simple rules in life, and I promise you, things magically get easier. " - MageTank 31-10-2016

It's voltage monitoring software. It's going out of spec by a bit according to said software. Then again, software for an application like this is far from reliable. Don't worry about it.

|PSU Tier List /80 Plus Efficiency| PSU stuff if you need it.

One more question. I know that these software reading can be inacurrate but is it normal that in gaming and OCCT stress test PSU voltages vary (in gaming from 12.144 to 12.081 - more often - no cutscene just game, OCCT 12.302 to 12.250 - not so often)?

It's normal in that the software is going to randomly spit out numbers, yes.
