I'm wondering if what I see on my voltages is something to be concerned about.  The first image is from Everest Home and it reports my "-5V" at "+3.5".  The second image is from Motherboard Monitor which is out of sequence but still says "+3.57V".  I could be a +3.3V at +3.57 but both programs already report my +3.3V about +3.29V which is good.  Even in BIOS I see the same thing.  So, is this a problem, or is my BIOS reading the wrong sensor?

It's just Everest reporting the wrong sensor and/or using the wrong scale.

The question is, is Bios reading the wrong sensor?
I can't think of what uses 3.5V.  undecided

My Bios reports the -5V at + 3.5V.   Any thoughts on how this might happen?
