So i was monitoring my voltages on HW Monitor and was wondering why my +12 is 14.9-15.1 max?
Also my +5v is around 3.3 constant

Regardless I want to fix this, I assume its a problem I wouldn't want to ignore. How would I go about fixing this?

You fix it by using a better utility than HWMonitor.

If your +12V rail really had a voltage of 14.9-15.1 max your system wouldn't even be running because the PSU's OVP (i.e. Over Voltage Protection) circuit would have kicked in to shut it down, assuming your PSU has OVP.
