Ive had my psu for over a year now... i noticed now when i play CS:S i get really crappy frames with my hardware at 1024x768 with everything on low in game, and default settings in nvdia control panel except for vsync off
520watt aspire PSU

i wanna know if these voltages are too low for my rig
from asus probe
12v = 11.968v and 11.904v
5v =5.053 and 5.026v
3.3v = 3.28v and 3.264v
Vcore = 1.518v

Software readings are notoriously inaccurate. There is no easy way to measure the voltage of your CPU directly. And correctly measuring voltages on the +12V, +5V and +3.3V rails requires using an actual multimeter and sticking their probes into the MOLEX connector or the correct wires/pins on the ATX connector.
