Das kostenlose Hardware-Tool CPU-Z von CPUID ist in der Version 1.61.3 verfügbar. Das Programm liefert alle erdenklichen Informationen über die im System verbaute CPU. Zusätzlich lassen sich Informationen über Mainboard, Grafikkarte und RAM auslesen. Die integrierte Validierung ermöglicht es, OC-Ergebnisse durch das Programm bestätigen zu lassen.
Bei Problemen mit CPUID-Produkten kann im offiziellen Forum (Link s. u.) direkt mit den Entwicklern kommuniziert werden, diese lassen einem auch schon mal eine speziell angepasste Beta-Version zukommen.
Das Programm läuft unter allen Windows-Versionen ab Windows 2000.
Die Version 1.61 krankte unter fehlerhafter Taktfrequenz-Erkennung unter Windows 8 und einigen anderen Kleinigkeiten. Hier das Statement der Entwickler dazu:
Some of you may have noticed that the latest version of CPU-Z (1.61) was suffering lot of bugs, especially in clocks report (CPU speed, BCLK and consequently memory clock). That deserves some explanation.
CPU-Z is using a very handy timer named "APIC timer" for clocks computation. Unfortunately for us, Windows 8 does use that timer as well, and the simultaneous use of that timer by an application causes big troubles (system crash). Microsoft declared that this timer is a not a shareable resource, so we have no other choice than to stop using that timer.
Version 1.60 is the last that use that timer, and version 1.61 is the 1st version that does not use the APIC timer anymore, and as you may have noticed, the alternate methods are not working very well yet. We updated to 1.61.1 and 1.61.2 to fix several issues. Today, we released 1.61.3, that does still add several fixes. We hope to be close to the complete solution of that problem, and to be able to provide a CPU-Z as good as it used to be.
Und hier die Release-Notes der Version 1.61.3:
Fix wrong CPU clock speeds (1.61.2). Thanks to Christian Ney from ocaholic.ch for his great help on that issue.
