Recently my computer has been randomly freezing up and also rebooting. What is going on? Should my PSU be enough? Any help would be appreciated.

My current rails for the PSU are as follows:
+12V: 11.584
+5V: 4.892
+3.3V: 3.216
VCore: 1.438

Here is my system spec
CPU: A64 3200+ w Zalman 7700cu
Mobo: Asus K8V SE mobo
RAM: 2 512MB sticks of RAM (Corsair)
Vid Card: AIW 9800 Pro
Sound Card: Chaintech AV710
HDD: 80 GB Seagate, 30GB WD, 2 160GB Seagates (RAID 0)
Optical Drive (NEC DVD Burner)
PSU: Seasonic S12-600W
 
ure 12v rails are pretty low... 18+ would be a lot better

11 on the 12v rail is really low, im pretty sure that is what is causing ure probs, unless ure overclocknig or something... dont quote me though

i looked up ure psu, it said it hasd +18 a on the 12v, which u should be ok with.. i dont know try gettign someone elses help..... sry :rolleyes:
 
The Seasonic S12-600 has 18 amps on each 12v....which it has 2 of as it is an ATX12v2.0 PSU. The combined 12v is capped at 432 watts.

As for the OP....I am guessing you are using software to get those values.....well not really guessing I am pretty sure. Check them with a DMM.

You are correct, I am getting it with Asus PC Probe. What is a DMM if you don't mine me asking?
