If your like me, the computer you use was built by someone else. So what do you do if you would like to upgrade your rig and maybe need to know the motherboard manufacturer, your ram type/speed, the chip set or anything of that nature.

Maybe the documentation that came with the computer is sparse or nonexistent to find out this information. Short of cracking open the case and snooping around to find the answers or turning it over to a computer tech., may I suggest this free, handy dandy little program called PC Wizard.

When you run the program it analizes you computers hardware and software then tells you everything, and I do mean everything about your computers specs. It even gives cpu temperature, fan speeds, votages, clock speeds and so much more. I couldn't believe all the info this program spit out.

So if you have a need to know or your just curious whats under the hood, this is the ticket for you.

Here is the link ..... http://www.cpuid.com/pcwizard.php#screenshots ..... scroll about 1/2 way down the page, you have the option of a zip file or an executable file. Enjoy, curious minds want to know.

You can also use a free program called sissoft sandra lite edition. it will tell you more than you want and need to know about your computer. it also has memory,cpu,video,hard drive benchmarks included to let you compare your machine to others. You can GOOGLE sandra and there will be alot of links to download it. mobrules.gif
