My power supply readings through CPUID HWMonitor

I'm looking at the voltages and my +12V is idling at 8.36V, is that considered good or bad? The 3.3V and 5V are in their respectable voltages reading.
 
stranglehold,

It has the same reading, this is a newly power supply too. I know a few days ago I had set the cooling in bios to maximum cooling..do you think that's drawing out more voltages out of the +12V?
 
I just looked into my bios and the readings are different from the software. It says my +12V readings are 12.012V and the rest of the readings states:

5V 5.056V
-12V -11.891V
3.3Vcc 3.222V
3.3VSB 3.252V

The software is a bit off, :P~
 
If your bios has 12.012 and your not having problems with shutting down or freezing. Dont worry about it.
 
Only true way to read voltages is using an accurate multimeter.

As Stranglehold mentioned if your system is working OK do not worry.....
