How much is too much?

Ignoring my temperatures, focusing on the voltages, and ignoring the fact that it read "0 V" for a moment, how are my voltages? I ask for 3 reasons:
  1. I used the same Antec SmartPower 2.0 in another case w/a 6600GT & E6300 (all other sig specs the same), and my voltages were averaging lower on the 12V (~12.15-12.2V).
  2. I want to know if there is a limit to how high is 'acceptable' on the 12V rail.
  3. I have had 1 SP2-500 die, and know the rep, so I want to avoid the potential for collateral damage, if this is a sign of a dying PSU.

Thanks to the gurus,

I wouldn't trust the voltages that MBM is reporting. The best bet is to use a multimeter to test the voltages. The readings will be much more accurate (assuming a decent multimeter).
