Well, some of you may know that my dad's PC died from a power surge that fried his PSU. So, we bought an Antec Smartpower 2.0 400 Watt PSU to replace it. However, as I am looking at the volts right now (through ASUS PC Probe...), my readings are:
+12V = 12.68V
+5V = 4.838V
+3.3V = 3.28V
My main concern is the +5V line, whereas his fried Thermaltake 480 Watt PSU use to provide 4.999V. Is the Antec's voltage alright because it seems a little low??? Thanks.
PS (His PC is identical to mine, except for a stock Athlon XP 3200+, a low-end graphics card, and two SATA HDDs.)
