TechPowerUp has released version 2.60.0 of GPU-Z, a popular graphics sub-system information, monitoring, and diagnostic utility. This latest update brings significant enhancements, including full support for the Arm64 architecture and Qualcomm Snapdragon X Elite GPUs. The release also adds support for AMD Zen 5 CPU temperature monitoring and a wide range of new GPUs from NVIDIA, AMD, and Intel. Notable additions include the NVIDIA 4070 Ti Super (AD102), RTX 4070 (AD103), RTX 4060 Ti (AD104), RTX 4060 (AD106), as well as AMD Zen 5 (Strix Point and Granite Ridge), and Intel Raptor Lake U SKUs and Meteor Lake Intel Arc Graphics.

In addition to expanded hardware support, GPU-Z 2.60.0 addresses several important issues. The update fixes NVIDIA driver version reporting for some pre-2015 versions, resolves an installer problem that prevented closing running instances of GPU-Z, and corrects the "0 MHz" memory clock display on certain AMD RDNA GPUs without overclocking support. Other improvements include a small handle leak fix, added support for the Monster Notebook subvendor ID, and compatibility with new VMWare virtual GPU IDs. The installer now requires Windows 7 or newer, with appropriate messaging for unsupported systems. Users can download the latest version of TechPowerUp GPU-Z from the official TechPowerUp website to access these new features and improvements.

My 2.57.0 works with no flaw so perhaps I'll update another time.

Whoever is behind this tool: thank you. Nice software.
 
Always nice seeing a new version out :D

As a side note, are there any plans for a linux release now that full arm64 support has been added? I'd love to get this on some of my ARM-based SBCs running Debian to see the guts of the integrated GPUs.

Absolutely no plans for a Linux version, but I have plans for a big UI refresh

Thanks for the update and the information.
 
Sweet! ARM support. Notice the Adreno 690 vs 680 in one of the tabs. Thats a Qualcomm issue. Its listed like this everywhere in Windows, dxdiag reports, etc.
I like the "Not using PCI-Express" notice in REBAR.

Looking good. Unfortunately Qualcomm isn't willing to reveal the ROP/TMU count for this processor. I spent like a week debating back and forth with them. They did share the number for the X Elite though, which give me hope that they will learn and release this info in all future releases
 
Added support for new VMWare virtual GPU Id
Since I've been using GPU-Z for a long time this change inspired me to contribute. At the moment GPU-Z doesn't support the graphical options of Oracle Virtualbox nor QEMU, which when used with Linux's KVM is probably the most popular virtualization toolset for that OS.

Oracle Virtualbox 7.0.20 with a Windows 10 guest OS with latest guest additions has 3 graphical options, but only the first one is officially supported and allows for limited 3D acceleration:

1) PCI\VEN_80EE&DEV_BEEF&SUBSYS_040515AD&REV_00 - Graphics Controller: VBoxSVGA, Device Name: "VirtualBox Graphics Adapter (WDDM)", enabling 3D acceleration doesn't change this
2) PCI\VEN_80EE&DEV_BEEF&SUBSYS_00000000&REV_00 - Graphics Controller: VBoxVGA, Device Name: "VirtualBox Graphics Adapter (WDDM)", 3D acceleration disabled, enabling it changes to VBoxSVGA
3) PCI\VEN_15AD&DEV_0405&SUBSYS_040515AD&REV_00 - Graphics Controller: VMSVGA, Device Name: "Microsoft Basic Display Adapter" - I didn't install VMware Tools, 3D acceleration disabled, enabling it changes to VBoxSVGA

1) and 2) show empty in GPU-Z while 3) shows up as VMware which is what it was designed to do.

QEMU 9.0 under Proxmox VE 8.2.4 which exposes the most popular of QEMU graphics adapters (with the latest VirtIO driver ISO installed), Windows 10 as well:

1) PCI\VEN_1234&DEV_1111&SUBSYS_11001AF4&REV_02 - std - Standard VGA, Device Name: "Microsoft Basic Display Adapter" even with virtio tools
2) PCI\VEN_15AD&DEV_0405&SUBSYS_040515AD&REV_00 - vmware - VMware compatible, Device Name: "Microsoft Basic Display Adapter" - I didn't install VMware Tools
3) PCI\VEN_1B36&DEV_0100&SUBSYS_11001AF4&REV_05 - qxl - SPICE, Device Name: "Red Hat QXL controller"
4) PCI\VEN_1B36&DEV_0100&SUBSYS_11001AF4&REV_05 - qxl2 - SPICE dual monitor, Device Name: "Red Hat QXL controller", adds 2 controllers
5) PCI\VEN_1B36&DEV_0100&SUBSYS_11001AF4&REV_05 - qxl3 - SPICE three monitors, Device Name: "Red Hat QXL controller", adds 3 controllers
6) PCI\VEN_1B36&DEV_0100&SUBSYS_11001AF4&REV_05 - qxl4 - SPICE four monitors, Device Name: "Red Hat QXL controller", adds 4 controllers
7) PCI\VEN_1AF4&DEV_1050&SUBSYS_11001AF4&REV_01 - virtio - VirtIO-GPU, Device Name: "Red Hat VirtIO GPU DOD controller"
8) PCI\VEN_1AF4&DEV_1050&SUBSYS_11001AF4&REV_01 - virtio-gl - VirGL GPU, Device Name: "Red Hat VirtIO GPU DOD controller"

Ad 8) This should allow for limited OpenGL support from the host GPU, but I'm not sure that support is even available under Windows.
Just like with Virtualbox only 2) shows up in GPU-Z.

There's also Xen, but I don't have any infrastructure in place to test what they provide. From the driver packages it doesn't look like they have anything special for graphics.

It was fun installing the RTX 3050 6GB for the first time as GPU-Z 2.58.0 was giving me a look, asking WTF I was doing with unknown hardware. 2.59.0 fixed that up.

Yeah I know but my future GPU does not yet exist. Don't see any sense in upgrading a 6700 XT to something available today. Even 4090 doesn't sound too attractive. Especially because I'm not really rich.

Let's hope you will make it beautiful and modern. Maybe include Aero look?

BTW, there is a need to rearrange the information on the main Graphics Card tab. Why not replace the AMD/nvidia brand logo with a photo of the actual graphics card in use?
Also, Technologies must be somewhere up, not at the bottom.
You can order it this way:
1 row. Name
2 row. GPU; Die Size; Transistors (count in Bln, Mln)
3 row. Manufacturing Process; Revision; Release Date
4 row. AIB; Device ID
5 row. VBIOS Version
6 row. Shaders; Shaders Clock; ROPs/TMUs Quantity
7 row. VRAM Type; Bus Width; Memory Clock
7 row. Bus Interface;
8 row. Pixel & Texture Fillrate; Memory Bandwidth
9 row. DirectX Support; Technologies; Computing
10 row. Driver Data

Yeah I know but my future GPU does not yet exist. Don't see any sense in upgrading a 6700 XT to something available today. Even 4090 doesn't sound too attractive. Especially because I'm not really rich.

There will be a very long wait. I would recommend wait for a 2nm AMD Radeon in the ballpark of Radeon RX 7900 XT 20 GB market tier.
 
Any plans on releasing a native ARM64 build of GPU-Z?

One change that was not made in 2.60.0 was the speed ordering:

GPU Clock/Memory/Boost
  • The first refers to the GPU
  • The second to the memory
  • The third to the GPU again

And that there's no hardware acceleration, like it's the pre-Pentium II days, LOL.

GPU-Z for ARM64 works extremely well. The fact that QualcĐľmm keeps unnecessary secrets and/or tends to obfuscate info is on them. Even M$ doesn't know what do to here.

If you need any logs or info u can contact me any time.

But for now, have the lower spec 7c, also from Samsung. Sam didn't want to sing, but in the end Samsung - (i know its a different version of the joke, pls dont kill me).

Who said I'm in a hurry? I can wait almost forever, I got plenty o'business to catch up so another four or six years of not buying a GPU won't be a problem. AMD, NV, Intel... I will buy whatever I feel most feature-rich, even if lacking in strict perf per $. I just wanna be able to tick EVERY box and see if it's good rather than having a half boxes unavailable and a quarter, working poorly. That's why I'd buy a 4080 over 7900 XTX today because the latter can't do RT as smoothly, can't do DLSS whatsoever, and is a little worse in energy efficiency (however, not that I care about that lmao) despite being a smidge better in raw performance per dollar.

So, yeah, before that, I'll only update GPU-Z if I delete it by accident or stumble upon new cool features.

No plans at this time, the current solution works well enough and there's no need to confuse people with 3 different downloads.

This will not happen until the UI rewrite, probably not even in 2024

Why would they hold back such trivial information? I can't imagine. :eek:

Sometimes, stubborn pendejos are hired. Sometimes, it's just a misinterpretation of the "classified information" term: they might think they are not allowed to share this data.
 
Great having SDX support. Although some data is still missing.

Also curious about the ray tracing checkmark being unchecked. I've seen multiple reports state that hardware raytracing is supported by the SDX processors.

One of which is the Signal65 report which ran 3DMarks Solar Bay on the Snapdragon X Elite. This benchmark does not run on GPUs that do not have hardware ray tracing.

I've just installed the latest driver from AMD : chipset and stuff just to make sure it's up to date.
Upped Gpu-z version as well.

Can you measure the die size for us? I doubt we'll ever the transistors from Qualcomm.

I dont think RT is supported, checking with Qualcomm

Here is Solar Bay running. 100% GPU usage, minimal CPU usage.
