Yeah i've been running the beta of this for the last while.

I like it better than the old version.

what does it do?

Nice new logos. :laugh:

It sounds silly, but the in spite of the graphics tab being added, the overall size of the CPU-Z windows is smaller, which is really nice for screenies.
It's not that they've gotten rid of stuff; just it's a more efficient layout

wondering why win98 ver is now separate. maybe uses some new runtime libraries. no info provided for voodoo5 5500. maybe they don't support old gpus like they do for cpus.

 

[taltamir]

probably

 

[taltamir]

so, what are the benefits, if any, of running CPUZ in 64bit?

 

[Denithor]

Bragging rights? I dunno otherwise.

 

[taltamir]

people brag about things without benefits?

I like this new cpu-z. Thanks for the heads-up. It looked a little weird at first (kinda short/fat). Haha. The GPU tab is a nice addition.

IO think it allows you to validate specs?

 

[spinejam]

tx, much nicer -- vc option too! :thumbsup:

 

[Sylvanas]

I think for monitoring purposes / info for GPU, GPU-Z isn still far better- however we have to keep in mind this is preliminary GPU support so good on them.

Thanks for the heads up. This is one of the first tool I download and run on my new systems. I am sure the old versions had a validation option too.

This new layout seems like a widescreen version.
