Motherboard (GA-G41M-Combo) does not show voltage on +5V rail of PSU

Hi,
I have Gigabyte MB. model:  GA-G41M-Combo (rev-1.4)
Suddenly I notice  in BIOS it does not show voltage info about +5V rail of PSU (Corsair VX 450 W)..
I an see others info like +12V rail voltage, VCore, DDR voltage etc...
Is it normal for my model? Or I am missing something..
Need this small info..please help!

Hi

I really wouldn't worry about it if everything is working correctly then it is just a reporting issue and won't make an difference. :)

Thanks..
No, actually I am having an issue with my PSU..my machine is ON while monitor goes to standby mode randomly..and no option remains left to me without restarting..
SO I am having a discussion in Corsair forum (my PSU)..and they are asking me for those voltages in different PSU rails..
Initially I was checing with EVEREST..and it was showing just 1.14V in my +12V rail, and 4.03V in +5V rail which are not possible in real...I was asked then to trace those voltages through BIOS..in BIOS +12 V is showing as 12.1V..but no info regarding +5V rail....
This is the whole story behind..and voltage reading seems to be important to identify the cause..GPU or PSU?

If you are after accurate voltages from the PSU it would be best to use a digital voltmeter and take the readings directly from the power supply leads. There is no way any error can creep in that way and you can be sure of the information you are giving them.
