GPU Caps Viewer 1.64.4.0

GPU Caps Viewer: GPU information, API reporting and stress testing

GPU Caps Viewer is a Windows utility from oZone3D.Net and Geeks3D that identifies graphics hardware, reports supported graphics and compute APIs, and provides real-time 3D demos and stress tests. The current release, version 1.64.4, is distributed as a 7-Zip archive without an installer and runs as a 32-bit application. It can monitor NVIDIA GeForce and AMD Radeon GPUs.

Core functionality

• API and extension reporting: Shows OpenGL, Vulkan, OpenCL and CUDA support levels, along with a list of OpenGL extensions. Each OpenGL extension can be opened on its description page in the OpenGL Extension Registry or NVIDIA's OpenGL specifications.
• Hardware and system information: Reports GPU type, video memory, driver version, and vendor and device IDs, along with CPU type and speed, system memory, operating system and PhysX version. OpenGL capabilities such as texture size and number of texture units are also listed.
• Demos and stress tests: Includes OpenGL and Vulkan real-time 3D demos and a GPU Burner-style stress test. Several stress demos can run at the same time to load the graphics card more heavily.
• Monitoring and reports: Displays GPU core temperature, GPU, memory and MCU load, and fan speed in real time. Full reports can be exported in text and XML formats. A graphics card validation feature uploads hardware data to the oZone3D.Net server and returns a link to a validation page.

Practical applications

• Development: Checks which API versions and extensions a graphics card exposes, which is useful when targeting specific features.
• Technical support: Text and XML reports give an outline of a system's graphics configuration for troubleshooting.
• Stability testing: Stress demos combined with temperature and load readings can help assess cooling and stability, for example after overclocking.
