Default TX850V2 Voltage Fluctuation increased!


The fluctuation in the 5V rail has increased and in about 10 seconds it fluctuates between 4.92V and 4.95Vv about 5times.I dont think that is a normal characteristic of a "high quality psu". Please let me know if its okay? Coz i remember even in my iball days the 5V appeared more stable!

^^ I think I've answered your question before and I'm saying it again that it's perfectly OK and within safe limit. The +5V has a operating range of +4.75 V to +5.25 V and the volt can fluctuate depending in the load on +5V rail - so don't worry too much - you've got a good PSU
