Hey Steemians,

Techpowerup just released a new version (2.1.0) of their software GPU-Z which has been around for ages and been a great tool for monitoring and getting info about you graphic cards.

In the new version they added a bunch of great features but theirs one that will make it really easy for miners who want to flash their cards but aren't sure which memory they are running. Often you are either running memory from Samsung , SK Hynix, Micron or ELPIDA and depending on which manufacturer you need different custom BIOS when flashing the cards even tho it the "same" graphic card. You can for example have 2 AMD RX480 and one is running Samsung memory and one is SK Hynix.
