Processor and RAM information

« Previous Image | Next Image »

When it comes to making hardware upgrade decisions, not every organization is able to say "we replace every computer every three years on the dot." Instead, many organizations must make year-to-year determinations based on available budget and existing computer performance. Two key performance indicators for computers have always been processor type/speed and the amount of RAM. Another one of iInventory's standard reports shows you the full name and speed for every processor in your organization and the amount of RAM in the associated computer. This goes way beyond many standard inventory spreadsheets that just include speed and total RAM! Now you can see which processors are dual-core, and therefore make better upgrade decisions.
