Speccy (freeware) - diagnostic tool for Windows

Post by Norbert Raimund Leisner »

Hello,

some chess engines e.g. Gull 3 x64 BMI 2 https://sourceforge.net/projects/gullchess require a Haswell processor (Intel) etc.

On Ivy-Bridge-technology 22nm (Core i5 Quad) such an engine crashes immediately.

Speccy (freeware) is a diagnostic tool for the determination of hard-/software.
