CPU-Z is a freeware system profiling and monitoring software developed by CPUID. It provides information about central processing unit, RAM, motherboard chipset, and other hardware features of a modern personal computer or Android device.[1]
Overview
CPU-Z is a freeware tool that is supported in Windows and Android.[2] It identifies various hardware components, and thus assists in identifying certain components; particularly the core revision and RAM clock rate. When the program is opened, it shows a CPU tab screen initially. It also provides information on the system's GPU.[3][4] The program is used for checking hardware components in a quick way.[3] While CPU-Z is a system profiler software, it may not always display complete or accurate information about hardware components due to variations of CPUs, chipsets, BIOS, and motherboard.[5]
Features
The program provides tabs and features for:
- CPU - provides processor name, package, code names, and core speed
- Mainboard - shows motherboard manufacturer, model names, BIOS information, and chipset
- Memory - shows memory types, size and frequency
- SPD - provides information about memory modules and specifications, with frequency and sizes
- Graphics - shows GPU name, memory sizes, and code name
- Bench - provides CPU benchmarks, of which users can also do processor tests
- About - shows the program version, and tools that includes saving reports[4][6]
