RTX 4000: Update for GPU-Z should prevent leaks with engineering samples

RTX 4000: Update for GPU-Z should prevent leaks with engineering samples


from Maximilian Hohm
By blocking the network connection, GPU-Z should no longer be able to be used to leak data from Nvidia’s engineering samples. The plan could work, but still doesn’t seem to have been thought through to the end. Apart from that, GPU-Z has been improved in detail in version 2.48.0, new products have been added and the tool can now search for DLSS-compatible games on your own PC. Read more about this below.

If you want exact sensor values, BIOS data or just a general overview of your graphics card, you are probably familiar with Techpowerups GPU-Z, which has been able to extract information from graphics cards with ever more refinement for years. GPU-Z is also the tool that allows users to upload their BIOS versions to Techpowerup’s database for sharing or just validating a graphics card. This should now be at least partially over in version 2.48.0.

<p>Apparently on Nvidia’s initiative, GPU-Z should no longer be able to be used to completely read out its own engineering samples and to enable validations and BIOS uploads in Techpowerups databases.  Measures are said to have been taken to recognize such samples and then prevent connections to the Internet.  Nevertheless, it is still possible to query the technical data and publish screenshots afterwards, so the benefit for Nvidia is probably very limited.</p>

Apart from that, DLSS has moved in under the “Advanced” tab in the new version and games with DLSS can be found. GPU-Z also no longer sends its data to Techpowerup, but to gpu-z.com to make blockages easier for admins. Intel’s Arc models can now be read out in much more detail and, in addition to a few small bug fixes, new models such as the RTX 3050 OEM or AMD’s Fire Stream 9170 have also been added. A full list of changes coming with version 2.48.0 can be found at tech powerup be viewed.
