Do you need to know all the details about the operation of your computer? Although there are many applications that we could recommend in this type of case, there is no doubt that CPU-Z is one of the best of them. Thanks to this utility, you will have at your disposal a complete system that will allow you to monitor each of the internal characteristics of your computer.

However, probably, in this case, you will have noticed that we are not talking about CPU-Z but GPU-Z, which is nothing more than a tool that has been developed for the Windows operating system, thanks to which we will be able to follow all the information, but in this case not of the whole computer, but in particular of the specifications that make our graphics card, and that is why the slight modification in the name.

GPU-Z, which has been created by specialists other than CPU-Z, nevertheless works in a very similar way to it, taking into account that there is a good chance that the inspiration of one over the other will be effective. As we said before, the big difference between the two is that now we will talk about a service that pretends to analyze only what happens with the graphics card.

Of course, GPU-Z will show you the most common details about your PC's video card, such as its model or internal memory. Still, it also adds other information that you will probably find interesting. To give you an idea, you will also be able to see the GPU model you have, the type of integration technology, and the frequency, quantity, and type of integrated internal memory.

GPU-Z even has a beautiful section, thanks to which you can see the current status of your video card, something that will be especially useful for those who want to overclock their card. In these cases, you will be able to visualize the GPU temperature, the frequency at which it works, the fan speed, etc., quickly and easily.

On the other hand, there is also a function that, although some people may think is not very important, we consider almost mandatory to appear in this program because it saves us a lot of time. We are talking about the possibility of extracting all the information provided by GPU-Z immediately by generating a text file to see this information whenever we want.

Considering that nowadays, many integrated graphic card options could have been added to the most powerful computers, it is not superfluous to have a tool of this type. The exciting thing is that no matter which one is inside your PC, GPU-Z has compatibility with most of them, so you will never run out of information.

And, of course, we could not fail to mention one of the significant advantages of GPU-Z over other similar programs: the fact that it is a portable program that we can run without the classic installation. Especially those who use several PCs during the day will understand that not having to install it is essential to use it without wasting time.

The user interface of GPU-Z, meanwhile, is nothing more than a list or file mainly in charge of showing us all the information we have been mentioning before without betting on an aesthetic too much achieved. Our conclusion in this regard is that it complies with a note because the main thing is that it shows all the data on a small screen and can be read easily, something with which it complies.

The best thing about GPU-Z is undoubtedly its ease of use. If you've never tried your luck with a platform that gives you all the information about your video card, this is probably an excellent option to start with. To that, we wanted to add the possibility of generating text files with all the data, and in the same way, evidently, the good amount of data that allows observing for the scarce resources it consumes.

Looking for negative aspects of GPU-Z, we must say that we have not found any important enough to mention here, which speaks very well of this tool because it is not usual for that to happen. That said, think that if you do not know this area, it is likely that you will find yourself at times when you do not understand what some data means.

In summary, GPU-Z is an application that all those who want to know the details about their graphics card should have installed on their computer, both general information and the state in which it is at a particular time. Its ease of use, the fact that you don't have to install it to use it, and the possibility of extracting reports are some of the great reasons to recommend it.
