    You want to test with a digital multimeter.
    Everest is only as accurate as the sensors on the motherboard.

    Which isn't very.

    Just to illustrate why you want to double check with a meter...
    Everest reports my +12v as 11.78v.
    Multimeter shows it as 12.22v.

    Rather large discrepancy.
