AIDA64

Over its 20-year history, the program has been renamed several times ^[5] :

• ASMDEMO (1995) is the first version of a program that can detect and diagnose PC components, wrote Tamas Miklos in assembly language and partly in pascal . In 1996, the first public version of ASMDEMO v870 was introduced, including a CPU and HDD benchmark .
• AIDA (2000) - The hardware database contains 12,000 records supporting MMX and SSE . Later, with the expansion of features, the program was renamed AIDA16, however, everything also had a text interface .
• AIDA32 (2001) - written in Delphi , the program began to use a graphical interface . In 2002, version 2.00 was released, supporting an XML report and an SQL database . Version 3.61, introduced in 2003, had a hardware database of 25,000 records, monitoring and support for 23 languages. The latest version 3.94.2 was released in March 2004.
• Everest (2004) - the program becomes commercial, and it is developed by . Version 3.00, released in 2006, contains a 44,000 record hardware database, graphical remote monitoring, and system stability test. The latest version 5.50 was introduced in April 2010 ^[6] .
• AIDA64 (2010) - FinalWire ^{[7] [8] [9]} gets the rights to the program. The equipment database contains 115,000 records with support for 64-bit and SSD . Version 2.00, which appeared in October 2011, was able to automatically update, and the database increased to 133,000 records ^{[10] [11]} . The latest version 5.95, released in November 2017, has a hardware database of 170,000 entries.

The program analyzes the configuration of the computer and provides detailed information about:

• devices installed in the system - processors , motherboards , video cards , audio cards , memory modules , etc.
• their characteristics: clock frequency , supply voltage, cache size, etc.
• their supported command sets and operating modes
• their manufacturers
• installed software
• operating system configuration
• installed drivers
• automatically loaded programs
• running processes
• available licenses

The program allows you to display a report with a complete set of data in plain text format, in HTML or MHTML ^[4] .

The program has a fairly wide range of benchmarking tests ^[11] :

• read from memory - tests the speed of transferring data from RAM to the processor.
• write to memory - tests the speed of transferring data from the processor to RAM.
• copying in memory - tests the speed of transferring data from one memory cell to another through the processor cache .
• memory latency - tests the average time the processor reads data from RAM.
• CPU Queen - tests the processor performance in integer operations when solving the classic " Queens problems ".
• CPU PhotoWorxx - tests the performance of blocks of integer arithmetic operations, multiplication, as well as the memory subsystem when performing a number of standard operations with RGB images.
• CPU ZLib - tests the performance of the processor and the memory subsystem when creating ZIP archives using the popular zlib open library. Uses integer operations.
• CPU AES - tests the processor speed when performing encryption using the AES cryptographic algorithm . Able to use low-level encryption commands of VIA C3 and C7 processors.
• FPU Julia - tests the performance of processor units that perform floating point operations in calculations with 32-bit precision. Models several fragments of the Julia fractal . If possible, uses the instructions MMX , SSE and 3DNow! .
• FPU Mandel - tests the performance of processor units performing floating point operations in calculations with 64-bit precision by modeling several fragments of the Mandelbrot fractal . Able to use SSE2 instructions.
• SinJulia FPU is a sophisticated version of the Julia FPU test. Tests the performance of processor units performing floating point operations in calculations with 80-bit precision. Uses x87 instructions for calculating trigonometric and exponential functions.

The program has 4 editions ^[12] :

• Extreme - diagnostics, testing and collection of system information for home users;
• Engineer - diagnostics, testing and collection of system information for IT specialists and engineers;
• Network Audit - an inventory of software and hardware for enterprises;
• Business - network inventory and IT asset management for enterprises ^[13] .
