you might have a point, but users expect to see "PCI-Express" "AGP" "PCI" in GPU-Z, not some mumbo jumbo term, that may or may not exist as documented.

Since the GPU is integrated in the CPU, GPU-Z makes the simplification to says there is no bus interface. wontfix

Ok, that's a design choice and I can see where you're coming from.

However, I don't believe in pandering to people's ignorance and what they "expect" to see, rather than what they should see, which are the proper terms. Let them research it, or ask on a forum if they don't understand and be educated. By the same token, you could always put a glossary in the help file (can't remember if GPU-Z has one! lol) that explains this, perhaps. Hence, my choice, would be to put the names in if I were developing a similar application, but I can see why you didn't.

Oh duh! Just saw this, K. :laugh:

lol ... you crack me up, Q. :)
You know darn well that the "bus interface" on GPU-Z has historically meant "where type of external bus does the GC plug in to", and in this case ... none.

Anyway, W1zz will make the call as it's his program. I vote for "Internal" or "Integrated"
A data bus is a data bus, internal or external. To me, the distinction is a bullet point only. Anyway, I accept W1zz's decision and can see where he's coming from, even though I don't 100% agree. Different people make different design choices and in the end the important parts of the program work the same, which is what matters most.

So, K, you're saying I'm a pain in the ass, huh? Goddamit, why do I tend to agree with you. :laugh: :toast:
