Speccy - Get to know your computer in detail

The average user usually only knows what the CPU speed is, how much RAM it has, what the label is on the graphics card, and how much the HDD is… But he doesn't know some perhaps more important details.

Speccy is a program that will reveal these details and you will have a complete insight into all the components that are inside your machine.

After the usual installation, run the program and wait a few seconds to search all the components. After that, you can see the basic details of these components, and clicking on one will open a new page where you can find all the information in the smallest details.

Speccy - Get to know your computer in detail

For example, I opened the details for the GT 520 graphics card. Now, we can see how much that card has its own memory, who is the manufacturer, temperature, GPU, DirectX support, OpenGL support, and even voltage and whether it produces noise in operation. You will not hear all this information from the seller, you will only know which one is graphic, and possibly how much memory it has.

You can also check the Processor, HDD, OS, Memory (RAM), Motherboard, Optical Drive, Sound Card, Peripherals, and Network. Everything in the smallest detail. If you are not an expert in hardware components, I believe you will not know what half of this information means, but you can easily find what you need.

The program is completely free and takes up a little more than 4MB and you can download it from the following link:  http://www.filehippo.com/download_speccy

Meanwhile, Opera Max has been discontinued and Onavo has been completely redesigned and is now a VPN application with the option to save internet traffic. Their compression technology is probably now used by Facebook in its application because they bought Onavo - link . Google has decided to seize the opportunity and "push" with a new application called " Datally ".

How to change IMEI number on Android phone?

IMEI is an abbreviation of "international mobile equipment identity" and each mobile phone should have a unique IMEI number. You cannot change this number with the operator, but you can temporarily change it on your device. It allows the operator to accurately identify your device and thus enable/disable network services. Also, you can use the possibility of changing the IMEI number, at least for a short time, if you know exactly what you want, but I leave those ideas to you because this is an educational article.
