can some one please help

The voltages look a little low. I have an Antec True Power 430 that
runs within .02 on the 3.3v and 5v rails (5v rail is usually dead-on
5v) and within .25 on the 12v rail, all on the low side. My Vcore is
also a little higher, it reads 1.68. I have the same board, KT4
Ultra....

a Little low? Let me ask you something. what are the acceptable ranges
according to AMD specs? Don't get this guy worried, his voltages are so far
inside "abnormal" that if they were any closer to spec, Id be Richard
Simmons "house guest"

The only thing he should ever worry about is that if he sees sudden drop
offs and/or spikes. then he would need to check his power line and test to
see if its providing the needed +5 +12 -+ by using a voltmeter for more than
1 hour.. His readings are fine.

Sorry Scott, I'm just so used to seeing mine so close to spec that his
really DO look low to me. These are voltages measured by PC Alert4,
but mine actually reads the same in PC Alert4 as it does in MBM5...

BTW, currently reading 3.28, 5 and 11.76-11.82, the first 2 are
rock-solid stable, the last one jumps around a tiny bit between 11.76
and 11.82...

Sounds ay ok to me bro.. Sometimes AC line conditions can cause
under-volts. I would rather see that then over voltage with the amd cpu's
since they run hotter than

"10 Budweiser chicks naked in my backyard standing next to, and sipping off
of a keg of what they "sell.." HAHAH Peace bro.
