Is 10% tolerance too much to ask from a power supply? I just replaced my 300 watt atx power supply (generic) with a 420 watt atx (I think the brand is TigerPro). I have my hardware monitoring software set to alarm if the level is more than 10% off. I have been getting alarms like that for several days... that's why I replaced the original supply. Now, while I'm typing this, my +12v just dropped down to about 8.4 volts. It looks like this supply is going back the day after Christmas. Then I will be ordering an Antec.:|
I had planned to detail the system specs, but accidentally submitted what was already there... anyway:
1 gig Athlon @ 1 gig
512 Crucial DDR
16x TDK burner
16x Pioneer DVD
7200 rpm WD 40 gig
2 case fans
