OCCT Perestroïka 2.0.0a available !

You're wondering what is OCCT ? Check our FAQ

Changelog :

MONITORING

  • BugFixs : Now OCCT properly detect all 4 cores temperatures on some quad-cores CPU, and OCCT properly detects CPUs in Vista (some were problematic)
  • OCCT now supports ACPI Sensors and HDD Sensors (SMART)

TRANSLATION

  • The "default.po" file used for translation is usable again - it was corrupted in the previous release

Changelog 2.0.0 :

TEST

  • Brand new and more effective tests !
    • CPU : generating much more heat
    • RAM : More effective at generating errors
    • Mix (Former CPU&RAM) : alternating CPU and RAM tests. You'll see peaks in the CPU temperature graph : this is normal !
  • Auto test is now 1h long
  • Custom test is now 2h long by default. Don't forget you can change this in the options !
  • A sound is played if any error is detected

MONITORING

  • CPU-Z SDK used : OCCT now uses the CPU-Z SDK Engine to get your system information !
  • Built-in monitoring : OCCT now integrates HWMonitor and will auto-configure itself for temperatures and voltages monitoring
  • CSMT common monitoring interface : OCCT is now using plugins to control monitoring programs (Speedfan, Everest,...). The details of this interface will be released soon.

INTERFACE

  • You can now select the custom test type in the main window of OCCT
  • The ON button now blinks when a test is running (if it is not blinking : error or your computer froze)
  • Option windows completly revised with new options (mainly related to graphs - see below)
  • OCCT's version number is now visible on the main window
  • Many new languages supported (Hebrew, Spanish,...)

GRAPHS

  • Graphs can now be generated in 2 different sizes - Check the options !
  • CSV files can be generated, containing the monitoring information of every graph
  • Graph scales are now much, much easier to read

Enjoy !

What is OCCT ?

OCCT (stands for "OverClock Checking Tool) is a CPU stability testing program, developped by myself.



Its features :

  • 3 different test types
    • CPU = no RAM tested, alot of heat generated on the CPU, errors are usually CPU-centered
    • RAM = Maximum error detection, tests the whole chain CPU-Chipset-Memory
    • Mix = CPU and RAM alternated
  • 3 tests modes
    • Auto = 1h long Mix test
    • Custom (Infinite) = Infinite loop of the test type of your choice
    • Custom (fixed) = A test of the type of your choice, and of a duration of your choice
  • Integrated monitoring and System information thanks to CPU-Z and HWmonitor engine
  • External Monitoring Program support through plugins (Everest, Speedfan, and many more)
  • Graph output showing temperatures and voltages of your computer
