I have baught a desktop computer and i want to know the correct specification in order to understand that i have not cheated and i have to the configuration components that i was promised, how do i verify all components and what softwares i can use for it?

To ensure you received the desktop with the promised specifications and avoid being cheated, you need to verify the individual components such as the CPU, GPU, RAM, storage devices, motherboard, and more. Here's how you can check each component using software tools:

1. Verify the CPU

• Software Tool: CPU-Z
• What to check:
• Manufacturer (Intel, AMD)
• Model (e.g., Intel Core i7-13700K)
• Number of cores/threads
• Base and boost clock speeds
• How to check: Open CPU-Z, and under the "CPU" tab, you'll find details like the model, clock speed, core count, and more.
• Alternative: Task Manager (Windows) > Performance tab

2. Verify the RAM

• Software Tool: CPU-Z (Memory Tab)
• What to check:
• Total RAM size (e.g., 16GB, 32GB)
• RAM type (DDR4, DDR5)
• RAM speed (e.g., 3200 MHz)
• How to check: Open CPU-Z, then click on the "Memory" tab for details about the RAM size, type, and speed.
• Alternative: Task Manager (Windows) > Performance tab > Memory

3. Verify the Graphics Card (GPU)

• Software Tool: GPU-Z
• What to check:
• GPU model (e.g., NVIDIA RTX 3060, AMD Radeon RX 6600)
• VRAM size (e.g., 6GB)
• Clock speeds
• How to check: Open GPU-Z and check the “Graphics Card” tab for the details.
• Alternative: Task Manager (Windows) > Performance tab > GPU

4. Verify the Storage (HDD/SSD)

• Software Tool: CrystalDiskInfo
• What to check:
• Total storage capacity (e.g., 1TB SSD, 2TB HDD)
• Type of storage (SSD or HDD)
• Health status
• How to check: Open CrystalDiskInfo and check the "Disk" section for detailed information about the drives installed in your system.
• Alternative: Disk Management (Windows) > Right-click "This PC" > Manage > Disk Management

5. Verify the Motherboard

• Software Tool: CPU-Z (Mainboard Tab)
• What to check:
• Manufacturer and model of the motherboard
• Chipset (e.g., Intel Z790, AMD B550)
• How to check: Open CPU-Z and go to the "Mainboard" tab to see motherboard details.

6. Verify the Power Supply (PSU)

• Software Tool: HWMonitor
• What to check:
• PSU voltage outputs (e.g., +12V, +5V)
• How to check: HWMonitor can show the power supply readings, but for the exact wattage rating, you may need to physically inspect the PSU label inside the case.

7. Verify the Operating System

• Built-in Tool: Windows Settings
• What to check:
• Windows version (e.g., Windows 10, Windows 11)
• Edition (e.g., Home, Pro)
• System type (64-bit)
• How to check: Go to Settings > System > About to view the system information.

8. Check System Performance

• Software Tool: 3DMark or Cinebench
• What to check: Benchmarking tests can help you assess if your system's performance aligns with expectations for gaming, rendering, or multitasking.
• How to check: Run the test and compare your results with the expected scores for your hardware (you can search for standard benchmark results for your components online).

Additional General Tools:

• Speccy: Provides a detailed overview of your system’s specs, including the CPU, RAM, storage, motherboard, and more.
• HWInfo: Similar to CPU-Z but more comprehensive. It gives detailed information about your entire system and its performance, including sensors for temperature monitoring.

By using these tools, you can thoroughly verify whether the system you received matches the promised specs. Additionally, always cross-check with the product details on the seller's website to compare specific model numbers and features.
