Still in beta but potentially a reasonably useful 'audit-type' program.

GPU-Z is a lightweight utility designed to give you all information about your video card and GPU.

The main features are ...


# Support for NVIDIA and ATI cards
# Displays adapter, GPU and display information
# Displays overclock, default clocks and 3D clocks (if available)
# Validation of results

No installation is required but I cannot be 100% sure that it meets PFC's criteria.

It's available from ...

Just like CPU-Z but for your graphics card.

I started using this app thanks to a magazine called maximumpc, and I would add it to the database but I remain the guardian of this forum, I am spams worst nightmare

Added to the registry:

[HKEY_CURRENT_USER\Software\techPowerUp]

[HKEY_CURRENT_USER\Software\techPowerUp\GPU-Z]
"Interval"=dword:00000001
"NextCheck"=dword:47c568c5

These appear to be related to the automatic updates.

There is a "Validation" tab which asks for your name and e-mail, but the app appears to function without the data filled in.

For reason i happen to have my laptop here with gpu-z, I'll see if there is a way to disable the update feature [edit]no guess not may take jauntepe and use it but other than that it doesn't make any other changes

I'm sure there is a way to disable the Auto Update feature. Either that or perhaps there is a ZIP of GPU-Z out there somewhere, if I can find it.

Well I went up and down and found nothing. i will email the author about it

I can create a wrapper for this that will delete the registry file it created after you exit the program. The only bad thing is it will always check for updates when you run it. Let me know if interested.

TPFC: http://www.portablefreeware.com/?id=1417 is on V0.3.1

V0.3.6 is available.

I saw that in one of the last CPU-Z releases it was added the support also for GPU, so it is even more complete.. is this software better?

Cool.

A newer version (2.37.0) is available.
