    CPU voltages

    Machine:
    Mesh Matrix XP1800+ 512K DRAM PC2100 133MHz

    Motherboard
    ASUS A7N8X2.0 Rev 2.0
    Chipset NVIDIA nforce2 Ultra400

    BIOS
    Phoenix Technologies
    version ASUS A7N8X2.0 deluxe Rev. 1005

    machine recently upgraded with
    a. XP2600+ processor
    b. 2.0GMB PC2700 333 MHz,
    c. 2nd hard drive 80GB
    d. NVIDIA GEFORCE4 Ti 4800 SE

    Operating system Windows XP Home

    Status:
    Recently been having blue screen crashes
    Found faults on two DDRAM units out of three, using the Microsoft Memory Diagnostic programme
    The memory units were replaced (running OK so far)

    The following voltages were obtained from Speedfan (Pageā€¦..Readings)

    Question:
    Do these voltages look OK?
    Concerned about the +12v & -5v figures

    CPU Core 1.62v
    Aux 1.62v
    +3.3v 3.28v
    +5v 4.89v
    +12v 11.67v
    -12v 11.88v
    -5v 4.62v

    Re: CPU voltages

    Unless you measure the voltages directly with a multimeter the best that a program like speed fan will tell you is if the voltages have changed over time.

    Let me explain that a bit better. The sensors that are being reported by Speedfan are not calibrated as such you can not take the values they report to be correct. At the most you could check them now and then if they were different in a month you would know that something was changing. The only way to really check your voltages is to use a multimeter.
