Power Supply Question

MBM5 shows my voltages as follows : 3.3v @ 3.2 , 5v @ 5.21 and 12v @ 12.14. Should I be concerned about the 3.3v rail ? If I remember correctly, it shows 3.29v in the bios. (Dragon Plus)

I would only be conserned if you are going to OC it and that would even be stretching. If your at 3.29 your prolly about as close as it's going to get. I know some better PS have the ability for us to tinker with the voltage settings but I wouldn't worry.

Thanks for the replies. The 3.3v concerned me. The power supply is a CompUSA 400watt, not sure if it was AMD approved. I've had it for 6 months or longer.

the 300 one works fine for me so I dont see why a 400w one wouldnt proform better
