Hi,
do you know if actually exist some real time power supply powered voltage/current tester to put in the middle of the psu -> mobo connector and measure voltage and current. Mostly to actually check for psu failure that you would not know on older mobo without internal bios reading until some components would fail.
For example once I've seen a new psu giving 17V on the 12v rail and something like 7V on the 5v rail that almost immediately failed a disk and almost burned a 9500 Pro. It was cheap and lately another cheap new V2.1 psu died who knows why.
Thank
