      Question Weird PSU readings :-S

      Salam Guys. I was just checking my temps the other day with speed fan and i noticed the voltage on the 12V rail and it showed only 8.34 Volts. I panicked and checked it on bios and it showed something around 12 V so i thought it's prolly a bug in speedfan so just to make sure i installed piriform speccy (another hardware monitoring software) and even it shows somewhere around 8V on the 12V rail. So what does this mean? Is it faulty software or is there something wrong with my PSU. I have two 80mm and one 120mm fan connected in a single molex. Do you think that could be the issue?
      By the way the pc is running fine so I'm not too alarmed but still just want to make sure.
      Thanks

      the best way to check it through mulitmeter if u dont have it
      Do check it from the bios, from there u will get a better idea

      Also change the 3rd party software,
      try anyother like
      AIDA64
      Speedfan
