Despite component shortages and price scalping, it has been an exciting time for tech releases. AMD, Intel, and NVIDIA have all launched various new products, and there have been a lot of generational upgrades. DDR5 has also been getting a lot of attention even though no supporting platforms have been made available. HWiNFO already has a listing for XMP 3.0 for DDR5 in its upcoming changes list. XMP 3.0 will no doubt play a large factor in the next generation’s faster frequencies.

  • Added LHR variants of NVIDIA GeForce RTX 3080, 3070, and 3060 Ti.
  • Fixed reporting of memory clock and some other parameters on Rocket Lake 6c/4c.
  • Enhanced early support of some Zen4-based systems.
  • Added workaround for systems with stuck SMBus causing large delays.
  • Added VRM monitoring on ASRock Z590 Extreme, Z590 Phantom Gaming 4, H570 Phantom Gaming 4, H570 Steel Legend, B550 Extreme4, B550 PG Velocita.
  • Added several NVIDIA GeForce RTX 3070 Ti and 3080 Ti card models.
  • Download pre-release: v7.05, Build 4490
  • Enhanced sensor monitoring on GIGABYTE X570S series.
  • Added option to use RFC 3339 or ISO 8601 date formats for sensor logging.
  • Added support of Intel XMP 3.0 for DDR5.
  • Added per-core temperature monitoring for AMD Zen CPUs.

HWiNFO’s upcoming changes log also lists a number of useful changes, such as early support for AMD’s Zen 4 processors, per-core temperature monitoring for Zen processors, and support for Nvidia’s new LHR RTX 30 series, RTX 3070 Ti and RTX 3080 Ti GPUs.

As a child of the 70’s I was part of the many who became enthralled by the video arcade invasion of the 1980’s. Saving money from various odd jobs I purchased my first computer from a friend of my dad, a used Atari 400, around 1982. Eventually it would end up being a lifelong passion of upgrading and modifying equipment that, of course, led into a career in IT support.
