is there an app that scans your computer and detects of theirs any issues with any hardware?

[saif961]

my warranty is about to end in a few weeks and i just noticed i have issues with my rams and im planning on ordering new rams sticks, but i wanna know if theirs any other hardware issues or any type of issues with my pc itself, so is there like an app the scans your pc and tells you all the problems? weather its software or hardware or whatever?

If there is, please let me know.

 

On a more serious note though, there are some applications that do run tests on hardware to check for errors, but the problem is, having any number of errors doesn't necessarily mean the hardware is a problem.

You can run tests/benchmarks and just see how everything is holding up compared to what it should do.

 

Memory: Memory Diagnostic (built in Windows)

CPU: Cinebench R20/R15 (You can compare R15 CPU performance to what other people are getting: https://linustechtips.com/main/topic/62476-post-your-cinebench-r2015r1152003-scores-over-1000-submissions/

GPU: 3DMark (Steam Demo runs fine, just compare it to other scores with your GPU)

Storage Devices: CrystalDiskInfo to quickly see how they are holding up, CrystalDiskMark to actually test the speeds

 

The other components (motherboard, PSU, etc.) will kinda get tested as you test the other stuff.

If any of the above show a lower score than normal or outright crash/give errors, that gives you pointers to research further on.

 

There isn't really a super simple diagnoser of issues.

Also, you could use UserBenchmark, but I often find their scoring to be.. Not that realistic as compared to the above methods. But I guess that's an easy checker for all of the above

For RAM, you can use https://www.memtest86.com/. For SSDs you can use something like CrystalDiskInfo, but most SSD manufacturers have their own apps to read the drive's S.M.A.R.T data to see if there are issues. Don't know anything specifically for CPUs/GPUs, but you could use benchmarks/stress tests to see if your computer runs into issues under load.

Just now, minibois said:

For GPU testing use GPUPI,not 3DMARK,

If the GPU has a miscalculation GPUPI will stop and display an error since GPUPI heavily relies on accurate GPU calculations.

 

GPUPI 3.3.3 download page:

Press Calculate then OK to start.

Not an all in one, because that would be about impossible, but there are programs for each piece of hardware.

Memtest86 for ram
For storage, quick and easy way is to open cmd in administrator and running "sfc /scannow"

for cpu/gpu I use OCCT to synthetically stress both to 100%. Inherently doing that will also test the power supply under max system load.

 

For stuff like testing USB hubs, Im not aware myself of any program, but if a USB is bad, you'll know when you try to connect something to it.

Fans are very easy to see if they're working like they should. (1. Are they spinning when they should be? 2. Are they making noise capable of waking the dead?)

Pumps if you're using an AIO, just lightly press a finger to the block to see if its running. You should feel it gently vibrate.
