I borrowed a power analyzer from work to see if the PSU (CM G550M) was behind the annoying behaviour (random freezes when the sound "freezes" as well, flash videos crashing with the monitor splashed in colours). I measured the 5V line and got a nice scare until I realized I had the ground probe on the CPU connector and the other probe on the end of a molex chain.
So, I am assuming the proper way to test things is with both probes on the same connector, because that is what that particular component will get. I haven't probed the ATX connector, because frankly I'm not sure how I'd do that.
When monitored on the same connectors all voltages seems ok and within spec. When monitored on the PSU directly they're even better, at least on one connector. I haven't measured the other connectors.
What do I do next? I have measured the CPU and PCIe connectors while under load as well, nothing really happened.
