Do I need a new PSU?

[yetyhunter]

First here are my specs:
E8400@3600 mhz,Asus P5N-D, SLI 8800 GTS 512 OC'ed ,4 GB ram, 1HDD and 1 DVD and 4 fans.
I am worried because of my +12V rail.At idle it's at 11.71 but under load it drops to 11.14. I used hwmonitor.
I have a 600w PSU with 15A+16A=31A.

Yes , they don't recommend it either 12v a bit weak for your rig.. imo

Software voltage readings are no good, use a digital multimeter. And the 12V rails are usually not additive (ie you probably have less than 30A).

That being said, you should definitely get a new PSU. Something SLI certified from Corsair or Seasonic, 450W+.

My PC is running with this PSU for months now.Didn't had any big problems with it except bad stuttering.

mine ran fine as well with the case supplied "550" watt psu until it smoked ! Guess what the 550 was a max that it could reach , if the sun were shinning and the moon were blue , not what it could run at all day .
Don't wait till things start smoking
