I have a Antec True Power 550, and I was wondering if I have a strange motherboard reading or if it is a sign of something going wrong. I am getting on my -12v, .97v.
All other readings seem to be fine :confused:

I have a ASUS K8V Deluxe motherboard

i had the same problem with my Antec True Control 550 on my NF7-S. i promptly returned it because the rails were too low, even after i had adjusted them.

my PCP&C 510 Deluxe and Fortron 530w units don't have this problem. i highly recomend both PSUs.

-12 is a no longer used RAIL that is a hold-over from ISA AT days, and can safetly be ignored. The reason it is so out of spec is because there is no load on the line to keep it regulated. No worries

my -12v is roughly the same on a antec smartpower 400w, but its perfectly stable.

Ok, Good to know. I just wanted to be sure that its ok for the -12 to be that low.

Thanks for the feedback
