PCVerified for Windows
Windows 10 / 11 · Intel or AMD 64-bit · Portable executable
Allow 6–10 minutes for a check.
For best results, close games and other demanding apps before starting the check.
Temporary program files are removed after you close the app. The downloaded app is also removed by default; you can choose to keep it.
PCVerified is in alpha. Try it on your own PC and share feedback while we validate support across more hardware. Online verification sends hardware and progress data. Optional diagnostic sharing is selected by default; you can turn it off before starting.
Download PCVerifiedWhat’s new · 0.7.4
0.7.4 · Signed app, memory scheduling and clearer results
- The Windows app and its CPU and RAM helpers are now code signed by pcverified.
- Improved RAM recovery and VRAM allocation, verification and timing forecasts. Coverage still depends on available memory, temperature and the test budget.
- GPU preparation and rendering coordination retain interruptions and workload changes in the results. A comparable performance measurement is not always available.
- Clearer unavailable checks and recorded errors, including device problems. CPU load coverage and the 60-second load-response assessment are shown separately.
- Copy and edit your PC specifications from the results screen, with English, Dutch, Spanish, French and Chinese language options.
Earlier releases · 0.6.0–0.7.3
0.7.3 · Better diagnostics, memory growth and reporting
- One online hardware check, with results saved privately on your PC. View the report first and choose Publish report only when you want to share it. Private diagnostic sharing remains a separate choice.
- Improved VRAM timing, calibration and growth scheduling, and gradual RAM regrowth. Verified coverage still depends on available resources and time.
- A single GPU observation retains pauses and reductions, with clearer elapsed and active rendering times. Unequal workloads are not presented as a valid performance comparison.
- Added verified AMD CPU models, including PRO models, and improved exact model-name matching.
- More informative CPU sensor diagnostics. Eligible GPU checks can continue independently after a CPU monitoring failure, within the original budget; missing CPU and combined-load results stay incomplete.
- Clearer GPU load shortfalls, skipped phases, thread-calculation results, thermal interruptions, shared memory and drive diagnostic limitations. Memory sizes use decimal GB and MB.
- Session-owned monitoring resources remain available when going Back or rerunning, and are cleaned up when the app exits.
0.7.2 · Clearer results and better test recovery
- A CPU load-response assessment uses a qualified minute after ramp-up, with checked-work speed, total CPU load, background activity and temperature context. The report includes a CPU phase graph.
- Improved CPU measurement timing and collection, bounded extra measurement time, and recovery after routine temperature reductions. Emergency controls remain in place.
- Milder predictive GPU reductions and faster, sensor-specific recovery. GPU rendering observations now explain the measured load response and when a timing comparison is unavailable.
- GPU pause temperatures are 2°C higher: 78°C core and 88°C hotspot or memory. Reduction, resume and immediate stop temperatures are unchanged. These are PCVerified screening settings, not manufacturer limits.
- Improved RAM regrowth, memory-pressure handling and VRAM timing forecasts. Sample size still depends on available resources; larger coverage is not guaranteed.
- Fixed CPU baseline recovery and empty USB-slot reporting. Available rendering stop reasons, drive self-test codes and hardware-event types now appear in the report.
- Clearer headings, coverage limits and notes. Recorded errors or incomplete evidence cannot be cleared by unrelated passed checks. The existing RAM coverage requirement also applies when an older report omits its policy field.
- The hardware-test pass thresholds, memory reserves and 10-minute maximum remain unchanged. A short passing check does not establish long-term stability or cooling performance.
0.7.1 · Hardware matching and website improvements
- Check hardware match can share private diagnostics after each attempt when the launcher sharing option is selected. Comparison diagnostics have a separate owner-only list.
- Improved drive identification with native Windows and NVMe fallbacks, clearer USB enclosure handling and a bundled drive database.
- RAM matching uses available firmware serials and can try direct DDR4/DDR5 lookup on supported Intel and AMD controllers. Missing serials retain specification matching; broader physical validation is ongoing.
- Clearer PCV-code entry and comparison errors, plus compatible website support for the new identity evidence.
- Updated homepage, How it works guide, real example report and mobile layouts.
- Temperature limits, health-test pass criteria and the 10-minute maximum are unchanged.
0.7.0 · Better recovery and Verify again
- Verify again compares this PC with the original hardware recorded under its online PCV code, without rerunning stress tests. Matching hardware does not renew the original health check.
- A simpler launcher with PCV entry, a dedicated comparison progress and results screen, and clearer sharing and cleanup choices.
- More responsive GPU recovery after cooling, with the same temperature controls.
- Video-memory growth uses more accurate timing estimates, can recover from isolated slow residency checks, and defers late expansion to protect sustained GPU load coverage.
- Clearer explanations when memory coverage or load testing is limited, plus compatible website reporting for the new evidence.
- Temperature limits, pass criteria and the maximum test duration are unchanged. Memory coverage remains dependent on the hardware and available time.
0.6.5 · A clearer, more consistent interface
- 20 October correction: fixed checks stopping before component testing begins. Download a fresh copy if your earlier 0.6.5 run could not start.
- Interrupted checks now show their recorded error and can share private diagnostics when selected.
- Updated website and launcher styling with consistent fonts, navy panels and rounded controls.
- Sharper progress text, smoother rounded bars and clearer pass checkmarks.
- Clearer report choices, with the PCVerified option first, plus matching styling for local HTML reports.
- Hardware checks, pass criteria, temperature limits and sharing controls are unchanged.
0.6.4 · More resilient monitoring and load checks
- Improved CPU monitoring startup and recovery from temporary control interruptions.
- More consistent video-memory growth, improved GPU load delivery and guarded recovery after cooling.
- Fewer skipped rendering segments, including when GPU checks run independently.
- Improved matching for supported NVMe drive checks and recovery from temporary Windows hardware-event query timeouts.
- Clearer interrupted results, corrected thermal-reduction counts, and total CPU utilisation in detailed results with test-worker usage in advanced details.
- Temperature limits, pass criteria and maximum test duration remain unchanged.
0.6.3 · More reliable completion and clearer explanations
- More tolerant CPU helper responses on slower PCs, with timeouts distinguished from calculation errors and incomplete checks explained clearly.
- Private diagnostics upload after each run when sharing is selected, without waiting for the app to close. Failed uploads remain retryable.
- Bounded recovery for temporary drive self-test polling and Windows hardware-event collection failures, with clearer diagnostic reasons.
- Refreshed report, example, homepage and download presentation, with clearer evidence, memory quantities and report-code lookup.
- Additional measurement-consistency checks before signing new reports, plus a clear upgrade message for unsupported checker versions.
0.6.2 · More reliable checks and clearer reports
- Improved GPU load recovery, rendering checks and combined-load timing, with more ramp-up time when useful.
- VRAM sampling grows in smaller steps toward a best-effort 95% target. Paced memory checks can continue when rendering or temperature monitoring is unavailable; known overheating still requires cooling.
- Better memory-budget accounting, integrated-graphics reporting and slow-HDD timing.
- Added supported short drive self-tests, drive health-counter changes and hardware/graphics-driver event observations.
- Clearer detailed results, optional advanced statistics and expandable temperature/load graphs. Load coverage now reflects CPU, GPU and combined results together.
- Removed separate changing-load phases from the default test, preserving sustained-load requirements and temperature limits.
- Fixed premature authentication checks that could interrupt signed reports; improved laptop startup and monitoring setup.
- PCVerified report is now the first start option. A selected-by-default checkbox controls private diagnostic sharing; uncheck it to keep diagnostics local. Sharing diagnostics no longer publishes your report.
0.6.1 · Compatibility and completion
- More flexible scheduling helps checks finish on slower PCs.
- Improved older-GPU memory sampling, slow-drive verification and GPU coverage reporting.
- Introduced CPU/GPU changing-load observations; these separate phases are no longer part of the default test in 0.6.2.
- Improved the owner analytics chart for estimated daily visitors.
0.6.0 · Deeper checks, smarter memory use
- RAM-first testing with adaptive sample sizing, memory release and a coverage-based result: a completed, error-free sample of at least 25% of installed RAM can pass.
- Adaptive VRAM allocation aims for 95% when resources allow, with memory-pressure monitoring and bounded extra time.
- Added graphics render-integrity checks, including a repeat near the end, and larger adaptive storage samples.
- Improved temperature-controlled load testing and recovery, with extra time only when useful.
- Better screen sizing and scrolling, clearer RAM-speed and coverage notes, and more reliable partial-report uploads.
Having trouble opening it?
Downloading with Microsoft Edge
If Edge says the file isn’t commonly downloaded:
- Download PCVerified using the button above.
- Open Downloads at the top right of your browser and select the three dots (…) next to PCVerified.
- Select Keep.
- Select the down arrow next to Delete (or Show more, depending on your Edge version), then select Keep anyway.
These steps keep the download. A separate Smart App Control block may still prevent the app from opening.
Code signed by pcverified. Windows may still show a reputation warning for a new download.
What data is shared?
Online verification sends private hardware summaries, a hardware matching hash and progress during the run so PCVerified can validate and sign the report.
If diagnostic sharing is enabled, private test readings and logs are sent after each check, while the results window is open. They may include device identifiers, local paths and background app names. Later cleanup logs stay on the PC. The diagnostic ZIP is accessible only to the website owner. Sharing diagnostics does not publish your report.
Read the privacy noticeSetup and cleanup details
Your saved results and private recovery data stay on your PC. Temporary program files are cleaned up when you exit the app, not when you go Back or start another check. The downloaded app is also removed by default; you can choose to keep it.
If PCVerified installs PawnIO for this session, it removes it when you exit the app and monitoring has stopped. A pre-existing PawnIO installation is kept. Cleanup can be prevented by Windows or an unexpected shutdown.
