I went to restart my PC and when it was turning back on it gave this error VCCIN is 4.080 volts. I did some research and this could either be one of 3 things a censor error, My motherboard dying or my power supply dying and I can't figure out which it is. So I went on a journey.

First starting with Aida64 Extreme Trial.

The results I got https://gyazo.com/3f0abf999edc21d4dc372c74503eda34

Then CPU-Z

I really don't understand.. Is this a error?
 
^ yeah mate I gathered it was an Asus prebuild.

Honestly I'd replace the PSU , acbel ain't great & if its 2-3 years old then it may be on it's last legs.

That surge error I've seen on Asus boards a lot.

It may indeed be a sensor error but I'd honestly replace the PSU anyway.

What are you actually running in that system ??

If you're running any kind of discrete GPU it will be right on the edge anyway , its really only capable of pushing just over 200w output.

Any PSU you would suggest? Should I even worry about doing it right away? I get the error everytime I start up but Aida64 seems to contradict it when its up.. I'm unsure. I'm a bit low on cash right now. Why I ask.
