DMM?....my PC gave me an error of overheating and i thought i better check up the voltages...how much is 3.3V be arnd?
 
you can NEVER....i mean NEVER!!! trust software for measuring voltages....ever

a DMM stands for digital multimeter, you can connect one to a molex connecter to measure 12V and 5V for the other rails i think you need to connect to the 20/24 pin cable going into the mobo..

Just to give an example of how bad software is for voltages, MBM (mother board monitor) said my 12V was @ 11.50......my DMM said 11.98

so there you go :)
 
well i checked using other softwares also....though none showed that its a danger level...but the voltages were the same in all of them...
