Hello, I do have the PSU listed in my specs at my profile. I remember when I bought it I had perfectly fine voltages and that's with me using a R9 290. However I realized a few days ago that my voltages were a little bit low, and considering I didn't change anything and I should be using less power now with a GTX 1060, it seems strange.
These are the voltages. As you can see they're all pretty low and the 3.3v is outside the ATX tolerance specs (I think the minimum is 3.13v or something). They aren't too high on idle neither. I have contacted XFX for a RMA (since it's still inside the 5 years warranty) but their answer was a little bit underwhelming. They said I had to pay for the shipment and I could be taxed from 50 to 100 euro for the return shipment from Hong Kong (which is 100% applied if they use DHL or something). And the whole process may take up to 8 weeks.
It doesn't seem worth it and I think I would be better off buying a new unit with a new warranty and from another brand that doesn't have a RMA system like this. However I wanted to ask, if I keep my current PSU, is there any danger for the rest of the components? Can it damage my whole PC?
Regards!
