Don't know if it's normal, but mine does. Sometimes
they will hang out at 2.13 for long periods of time,
and then will drop to 1.98 (and piss off MBM until I
changed the tolerance). If mine stayed 2.06-2.11 it
would make me very happy!

It's been the same with 2 different ps: first a 235W
when it was in my InWin midtower, and now the 300W
that came with my SuperPower full tower (supposedly
one of the best ps makers around...?)

I also know that my 3.3 likes to jump up pretty high
when things get intensive graphically (e.g. quake3)

On the other hand, the +/- 5 and 12 have always been
the perfect models of rock hard stability. So I tend
to blame things on the board...

cheers
