    Quick Voltage Question

     Hi all- monitoring the voltage from my 550W PSU.. my 5VSB is at 4.81V..I know it's just a standby but I've heard it also powers KB and Mouse.. is this true and is this cause for concern (my normal +5V is at 5.03 so that's fine :-) )THanks

    That is barely within the +/- 5% threshold of stability. If that is under load, then it is more understandable though still not good necessarily. It should be ok for various reasons, one being accuracy of the data and another being generally components will work when at least semi-reliable power is given ;-).
