TechPowerUp Releases GPU-Z v2.60.0

Does Solar Bay have some kind of fallback?

I dont think so. The system requirements are very specific.

It wouldn't run on my phone with a Tensor G2 since it doesnt support ray tracing.

ooooh it's Vulkan RT, the GPU-Z checkbox is DirectX RT

Not a single game uses Vulkan RT

Oh ok, I assumed it looked at both. Maybe needs to be renamed DXR then? Or at least a hover info box that clarifies that.

Also, Doom Eternal uses Vulkan RT. ;)

Unfortunately Qualcomm isn't willing to reveal the ROP/TMU count for this processor.

So I assume you ask the manufacturer for the datasheet values of the electronics.

The chip ID is parsed. Than the values from that big lookup table is than presented to the user?

Or are those sizes and features of the chip determined by the software and not from a lookup table?

There a few tools to read out some values in userspace in Gnu Linux. It depends on the chip in question. I doubt the windows code is any portable to gnu linux. It's another operating system with another kernel (=linux = only the kernel).

What can be read from the card/board/bios/driver is read, some properties can't be read, because they aren't stored anywhere like release date, process size, die size and transistors, so GPU-Z uses a table for that

Also DirectX support, so that the correct hardware support capability is listed on all operating systems. Current capability can be checked using Advanced -> DirectX 12

and of course some logic must be hardcoded like "10DE is NVIDIA", or "memory bandwidth is calculated using the formula ..."
