System Spec 2.65's performance is outstanding. Often information technology professionals need the basic information and description of computer hardware in order to repair or troubleshoot issues. System Spec correctly identified all of the hardware in the test computer except the Nvidia video card. The test computer's NVidia GeoForce 6150 Go (HP Laptop) was not identified. Although most of the descriptions can be seen in the Device Manager inside of Windows, these descriptions would not be available in a system that had drivers missing.
System Spec offers CPU load, Hard drive information, program information, network information and dozens of other features. System Spec gives detailed information about a majority of the hardware that it identifies. Many of the shortcuts inside of the program take you to windows "snap ins" or commands (SFC - System File Checker / Control Panel). Because many of the short cuts to system snap ins are included, this makes the program more valuable because you don't have to exit the program to get to these needed tools and utilities.
The program is only 2.5 mb and uses between 8 mb and 12 mb of RAM. The software returns information instantly and is not CPU intensive. System Spec allows for a full report to be exported to a CSV or HTML file. These reports can be used to identify the system's hardware at a later date.
