Voltages ... some advice. For a newbie.

[Momo]

Okay, so i've got 1 x 120mm SIlenX case intake fan, and 3 x Panaflo M1A's connected to my fan controller.

Here are my voltages as read by Asus Probe 2:

+12v = 12.22v
+5v = 5.107
+3.3v = 3.408-3.424
Vcore = 1.584-1.6

I'm a total newb when it comes to voltages on rails.
Am I okay with these? I would think so... the only real problems occur when you either have to little voltage, or to much, right?

thanks!

Those all look to be just fine, but I dont see why your worried about your fans changing it much.

just wondering about the juice required when adding a bunch of fans.

Also, I will be adding a DDC-12v pump.

Give me a break, i'm a total newb when it comes to voltages and what they really mean

well, M1A's take 0.45A at 12v .... sooo, 12 * 0.45 = 5.4 watts apeice
and you have 3 of them... so 3 * 5.4 = 16.2 watts

Not sure on howmuch the DDC-12v takes though.. the botem of mine is covered with sticky neoprene and its boled down too... but couldn't be that much

so, if you have a 100watt powersupply, then you should worry. otherwise... no prob

BTW: I graduated to Limp Gawd! YAYA!

Hi jacking with similar newb questions

What are the signs of an overworked PS in asus probe? Will I see low voltages? What % below the required is acceptable? Basically what should I watch?

I am starting to OC/WC. I am using an AC pump but I know the 9700 pro eats juice. I have a cheaper branded 250W PS and I am reluctant (cheap sob) to upgrade.

thanks

Your question would probly be better suited in teh powersupply section, and honestly, I dont know the answer
