Beware of Malware
Apathy4AllFebruary 22, 2014
Pros
It's a great little program that did everything I wanted.
Cons
Although I declined all the 'extras', it changed my homepage and search engine.
Summary
Again, the program itself is fine. I would have given it 5 stars, if there wasn't so much crap installed with it. Just have a strong anti-malware program.
Great information

Pros
I use CPU Z all the time but am switching to this Great information gathering
Cons
no cons to me
Summary
Good if you need to know what your system is doing. Will benchmark with upgraded paid version. Use this one.<br /><br /><span class='notifyMsg'> Updated </span>on Nov 6, 2011<p/>All the information you need to know about basic hardware and operating data. I have used CPU=Z for years but this program gives more detailed information about each subset. So I switched to this and get more than I usually need most of the time and exactly the information I need on those days I feel like tweaking and updating..
Great Information

Pros
Does exactly what it says it does. It gives detailed information about the specific parts of your computer. This is very useful incase you have no idea what RAM you need.
Cons
None that I can think of.
Summary
If you need a application to quickly retrieve information about your system, this app is wonderful.

None, couldn't use
Cons
Fails to launch.

zamanmohMarch 30, 2010
Pros
Nicely categorized and detailed information; very handy.
Cons
Quite slow to load.
Summary
Very good hardware monitoring utility, if you don't mind waiting a little at the startup.
Not for me
rmmccoyMarch 30, 2010
Pros
depends on what you need
Cons
not enough info for me
Summary
Depending on what you are wanting, this may have it. It has the temp and other details for the cores but nothing on fan speed. It also has much information regarding memory but nothing about temp. Having fried a couple of computers in my time, I am a bit paranoid about heat. It also has a great deal of information about the graphics card but no temputure or fan speed. It also has a section for the system board and again the information I want, isn't there. There are headings for temperature and chassis fan but there is nothing there.
