Using Speccy to see if my PSU is failing

Speccy

Hello.

I have a CX430 Corsair PSU and my GFX card is a EVGA GeForce GTX 960 Superclocked Gaming ACX 2.0 2GB. Last month, my monitors suddenly went to black. I swapped in an older card (EVGA 650 Ti) and I had no issues.

I RMA'd the graphics card since I was still in warranty, and just got the replacement today. I swapped it in and it's the same thing - black screens. I put the 650 back in and had no issues.

Before I open a new RMA, I wanted to see if anything else could be causing it.

The recommended PSU for the GTX960 is 400W, and it was in there for almost 2 years without problems, however the PSU will be 4 years old in a few months. I downloaded Speccy, and this is what it says for Volts in the Motherboard section. What are the VINx fields telling me?

Voltage
CPU CORE 0.896 V
MEMORY CONTROLLER 1.032 V
AVCC 3.344 V
3VCC 3.328 V
VIN4 1.008 V
VIN6 0.952 V
VIN7 0.144 V
VIN8 0.896 V
VIN9 0.120 V
VIN10 1.008 V
VIN11 1.032 V
VIN12 0.952 V
VIN13 0.120 V
Thanks for taking a look

No one is able to answer this?

here is my Speccy motherboard section.

i see no VIN fields, so quiet different.

(probably why no one has responded)

I was also using Speccy to check PSU voltages while the system was up and running, I replaced my PSU because of the readings, and not just from SPeccy but also from CPUID Hardware Monitor just to check and it had the same readings. BUT, when checking the power supply with a separate voltage tester, they are all good. This is the reported info from Speccy:

Motherboard

-12V -8.928 V
-5V -8.928 V
+5V HIGH THRESHOLD 2.782 V

Now, I have confirmed that the PSU is operating properly and that these readings are incorrect!
Is there something different about my motherboard? The other computers in the house all show up correctly when I run Speccy on them, but not on THIS system. This is kinda weird. So, any thoughts guys?

is there a hardware difference between the PC's Speccy works correctly on and the one it doesn't?

PSU? Motherboard?

Do you have the extra 6 pin power cable going from PSU to GPU plugged into the GPU?
