Tweaking the rails on my fortron source 530W PSU, should they be adjusted to what the BIOS reads, the Digital multimeter reads, or some other app? :help:

Zuntar, use only a DMM when adjusting the rails on a psu. You get more of an accurate reading :)

That's what makes sense to me too, just wanted to make sure I wasn't crazy or misinformed as to the proper tweaking methods. :cool:

Decided to adjust the pots for better rail performance (and a little OCing) :rarr:

now they are at:

Bios/Core Center
12v = 12.14
5v = 5.05
3.3 = 3.30

Digital multimeter
12v = 12.26
5v = 5.20
3.3= 3.40
