What you think about these voltages on my antec 430?

3.3V@3.25V
5V@4.92V
12V@11.67V

Are these normal at full load with my setup?

How did you obtain those voltage readings? If it was software or bios derived, and your rig is otherwise stable, i wouldn't sweat it. Software and bios readings tend to very inaccurate and the funny thing is, you're getting the almost exact same software results as other Truepower owners.
If i've seen those numbers once, i've seen them a hundred times ;)

A multimeter would be needed to obtain more accurate results.
 
I use software cuz there is no way to get load voltages in bios.
 
My Antec tru430:
3.3v@3.46
5v@4.89
12v@12v (lowest drop is 11.94v, but it usually stays steady @12)

Your 12v has a drop of .33, not bad but it seems a little high...do you have the newer version with the SATA connectors? Or the old one without?

Quite true, but BIOS and software are both getting the info from the same place, the SMB Bus. Either way, like everyone said it's not much of a deal unless you're having issues

I have old one without sata.
 
If the rails are within 10%, and are stable, you are fine.
If you get big swings in voltage, you aren't fine...regardless.
