Are my +5v and +12v rails too high? It averages 6.85v and 12.59v.

I've had this enermax eg701ax-ve(w)sfma v2.0 600 watts psu for about 2 years now, and I remember the voltages on those rail weren't this high back then, but I haven't checked for a long time, and I only checked now because it seems like the reason my old motherboard died on me. Is my psu going bad?

btw, is the heatsink on memory controller on the MB suppose to be too hot to touch? and anyone know where I can get a replacement motherboard...my asus p4p800e socket 478 motherboard (no warranty cuz it was a newegg open-box item) died last week. I stopped overclocking my cpu and video card a year and a half ago.

The specification is +/-5%. However, you are using software so its anybodies guess what they really are.
 
I see. How about the -5v and -12v voltages? They're -8.53v and -16.97v. Is that within the normal range?
 
Here is how accurate that is....your power supply doesn't have a -5v rail ;)
