woot lol i set custom cool & quiet enabled.
4x250 1.1V, 6x250 1.2V, 10x250 1.4V for fun, this avoids the worry of undervolting and i conserve energy

oh and about that, why am i able to set 4X multiplier with CrystalCPUID and no lower than 6X within BIOS?

wow Tagan IS nice... lol i got a Fluke 87V for $280 so it BETTER be accurate/sensitive... lol I'm getting 11.99 to 12.02 on the 12V rail. it jumps between those according to mouse clicks O_O

5.124 to 5.133 on the 5V though..

hm now to test on load

EDIT:
oh there it goes, 11.94V on dual prime

EDIT 2:
hm. dual prime and aquamark3 it went as low as 11.80V, is this bad?

i think its a positive meaning, but i shouldnt be the one to say.

anyway, on my previous gamer PC, 12V rail is at 12.59V idle, 12.62V semiload XD 5V rail is amazing though, 5.010 - 5.013V idle, 4.973 - 5.011V semiload

semiload = ATITool doing artifact scan, which uses nearly 100% of CPU

cant wait to test the shitty PSU from a brand i dont remember that had an average product life of a few months except mine has been running for about five years.

the hardware runs best obviously when they recieve as close to 12V, 5V, and 3.3V as possible. deviations from those cause instabilities and therefore corruption.

you should be fine, i got mine cuz... i. felt like it? XD XD my dads like "this could help with what you want to do in the future, sure, lets get it." i wanted a good one for accuracy, TIRED of those damn $5 needle pointing ones that report a new 1.5V battery at 1.2V. (reported my 12V as 10V too). fuck. that. so yeah, haha it comes free with a $100 IR thermometer so i guess its ok

the Fluke 87V is a digital multimeter + thermometer (it has those cool little temp probe things) it comes bundled with a Fluke 61, which appears to be their cheapest IR thermometer model. Fluke = one of the best brands XD regardless of their name sounding like a certain negative sounding word XD

wow. the celeron 466 with its generic PSU is getting 11.96 - 12.07 on 12V, 5.163 - 5.191 on 5V, not bad. not gonna load this POS

this enermax 350W in dad's PC, 12.24 - 12.33 12V line, 5V is really nice at 4.999 - 5.007.

semiload (ATITool artifact scan):
12.33 - 12.41 on 12V
4.962 - 4.990 on 5V

lalala so my previous gamer PC has the worst voltages XD
