All very handy tools, you can also include PC wizard and Everest Home edition.

Just make sure you check the files with anti-virus software before you install

Better to be safe than sorry

FYI

CPUID is actually a Visual C++ instruction call, _CPUID, which"


The supported features and CPU type information is returned in CPUInfo an array of four 32-bit integers that is filled with the values of the EAX, EBX, ECX, and EDX registers (in that order) after the cpuid instruction is called. The information returned has a different meaning depending on the value passed as the InfoType parameter. The information returned with various values of Info

Type is processor-dependent.

For you geeky types.
