2.7 volts over what its saying it should be at. Is it a misreading or am I missing something?

Do you know whats Connected to the 12V Rail? I dont think that this is that normal... But i Think your Power Supply will shut down if it is getting dangerous for your system

I was wondering about it, my south bridge is scalding hot and not to long ago my PC crashed. I dont know if these things are related

Well I think i need to say that if you touch it for your finger 41 degrees C are hot but for a Computer it actually isnt. But if your Southbridge is around 60 degrees C try to replace the Power Supply and take a look if it disappears... if not contact MSI for a replacement.

unplug everything that is not necessary to function and use onboard graphics to boot and test things out. 

 

in short, no that is not normal and not good for the board.

I see in your profile that you have a 

Thermaltake TR2 750w

 

This is a Tier 7 PSU on the list in my signature link. This is the worst tier you can get  You need to seriously upgrade your PSU to a Tier 1 or Tier 2 for best, stable performance you can get. 

 

This is most likely the source of your issue.

Yea, I would get it like yesterday. I personally would recommend an EVGA G2, its one of the best you can get.
