Compare your minimums and maximums to what the ATX12V specs say is the allowed valid range. If any of your minimums fall below the minimums shown in the table or any of your maximums are higher than the maximums shown in the table then your PSU is out of spec and should be replaced immediately.

E.g. If your PSU's +12V rail falls below +11.40V or rises higher than +12.60V then the PSU's +12V rail is out of spec.

It is within the range of tolerance. Voltages will change during use of the computer. However, as I stated before, the Apevia power supply isn't very good, and i'd switch it out ASAP.
