Default 22V on 12V during benchmark ??
Hi ! Since I've been overclocking my Q9300, I keep on having values like 22V for my 12V voltage during benchmarks. Is there a problem with my Corsair 750W power supply ? Hope you could help me Thank you !

Never, ever, ever...trust software for voltage monitoring. Invest in a $10 DMM.

Does not need to be a $200 Fluke, just something simple from Radio Shack, Wal-Mart, or any other hardware store that sells cheap multi-meters.
