Install and Remove
Since version 1.51, CPU-Z includes an installer. The installation offers several advantages in comparison to the stand-alone version :
  • The installation creates program entries in the start menu and on the desktop.
  • It installs the right binary (x32 or x64) depending on your system.
Installation
Run the setup executable file, and let it guide you for the installation process.
Removal
You can remove the program either from the Add or Remove Programs window (from Settings, Control Panel), or choose Uninstall CPU-Z from Start menu, Programs, CPUID, CPU-Z.
Configuration file
CPU-Z uses a configuration file, cpuz.ini, that allows to set several parameters for the program. The cpuz.ini file must be in the same directory as cpuz.exe. Note that the use of this file is optional. If no .ini file is found, default values will be used. It looks like this :[CPU-Z]
TextFontName=Verdana
TextFontSize=13
TextFontColor=000060
LabelFontName=Verdana
LabelFontSize=13
PCI=1
MaxPCIBus=256
DMI=1
Sensor=1
SMBus=1
Display=1
UseDisplayAPI=1
BusClock=1
Chipset=1
SPD=1
CheckUpdates=1
TextFontNameFont used for the information boxes.
TextFontSizeSize of the font used for the information boxes.
TextFontColorColor of the font used for the information boxes. Value is expressed in hexadecimal, and consists in a classic Red/Green/Blue color code : RRGGBB
LabelFontNameFont used for the label boxes.
LabelFontSizeSize of the font used for the label boxes.
SensorSet to OFF (or 0) disables sensor chip detection and voltages measurement.
DMISet to OFF disables the DMI (Desktop Management Interface) information. This concerns BIOS vendor and version, motherboard vendor and revision.
PCISet to OFF disables the PCI information. This disables chipset, SPD and, depending on the hardware, sensoring information.
MaxPCIBusSets the maximum PCI bus to scan. Default value is 256.
SMBusSet to OFF (or 0) disables SMBus information : SPD, and, depending on the hardware, sensoring information.
DisplaySet to OFF (or 0) disables the video card information reported in the validator.
ShowDutyCyclesSet to 1, switches the alternate clock computation method based on duty cycles. 0 to disable.
UseDisplayAPISet to 1, uses the display driver to read the display adapters information. 0 to disable.
Application parameters
-txt=reportLaunch CPU-Z in ghost mode : no interface appears, the register dump (report.txt) is automatically created.Example:cpuz.exe -txt=c:\mydirectory\mysystem: runs CPU-Z in ghost mode. Report file mysystem.txt is automatically generated in directory c:\mydirectory.
-html=reportSame as "-txt" but generates the html report file.
-core=idDisplays clock speed of core #id (id can be set from 0 to "Number of cores minus one"). It is then possible to check the speed of each core by running as many instances of CPU-Z as necessary, using batch files for example: cpuz0.bat: cpuz.exe -core=0cpuz1.bat: cpuz.exe -core=1 Note that the current core can be dynamically selected by right-clicking in the CPU page, and select the target core. This feature is available from version 1.42.
-consoleGenerates output in a command prompt (Windows XP only).
Special Keys
The F5 key allows to save a screenshot as a bmp file in the application directory. These are named cpu.bmp, cache.bmp, mainboard.bmp and memory.bmp.
The F6 key copies the current page in the clipboard.
The F7 key saves the validation cvf file in the current directory.
The F9 key switches between CPU clock computation methods.
Cache Latency Computation
The cache latency computation tool allows to gather information about the cache hierarchy of the system. For each cache level, it provides its size and its latency. Please note that code caches are not reported.The latency tool can be downloaded here.
