CPUID has updated their very popular system info utility to version 3.02 to stay current with the latest hardware. The update is important in the sense that it will correctly identify the latest upcoming Intel hardware, as well as certain specific AMD graphics cards. Older versions were simply not able to recognize them. So if you are buying new hardware and need accurate system info to be reported, you're going to need version 3.02 of the software in order to see new hardware reported correctly.
Software update identifies upcoming Intel processors and specific AMD graphics cards
Version 3.02 updates the software's database with upcoming Intel hardware (Razor Lake family of processors). It also adds the ability to recognize AMD Radeon AI PRO R9700 graphics card. The new updates are important so enthusiasts who are interested in the latest silicon can still use the utility to get useful information.
- CPU-Z Version: 3.02
- New CPU Support: Intel Razor Lake
- New GPU Support: AMD Radeon AI PRO R9700
- Bug Fixes: SPD detection issue on Intel Broadwell-E systems; validation problem on Windows XP
Razor Lake is supposedly based on the Nova Lake architecture. There will be a desktop version and APU versions. Leaks have indicated that these may be rebranded with Core Ultra 500 or 5000 series, although Intel hasn't announced anything officially.
Also, this update addresses a problem in detecting SPD for Intel Broadwell-E systems. Another problem with validation for Windows XP has also been addressed.
We've seen updates like this in the past – as we reported the last time for CPU-Z, for example. Much like last time, the update strives to balance stability with the ability to recognize new hardware. This time it's the same approach – new hardware as well as legacy system quirks.
You can download the update today. The update gives you solid data about upcoming Intel hardware (that hasn't been announced yet) and certain AMD GPUs. You can go and check out what you have as soon as you install this new version.
