System Information

How to Use This Test

1. Open this page on the device you want to check -- the test runs automatically
2. Review the detected hardware details including CPU cores, GPU renderer, and memory
3. Check your screen resolution, color depth, and browser information

What This Test Checks

The system info test uses browser APIs to detect and display key hardware and software details about your device. It provides a quick overview without installing any software.

• CPU information -- logical processor count and platform architecture
• GPU renderer -- graphics card details via the WebGL API, plus WebGL 2 and WebGPU support flags
• Memory -- approximate system RAM reported by the Device Memory API
• Storage -- browser storage quota and current usage via the Storage API
• Display properties -- screen resolution, pixel ratio, and color depth
• Input -- touch support and maximum simultaneous touch points
• Network -- effective connection type, downlink Mbps, round-trip time, and Save-Data preference
• Locale -- preferred language(s), timezone, and cookie status
• Codec support -- H.264, HEVC, VP9, AV1, AAC, and Opus playback capability
• Browser and OS -- user agent and platform details

Troubleshooting

If you're having issues with the system info test:

• Enable JavaScript if your browser has it disabled -- the test requires it to function
• Try Chrome or Edge for the most complete hardware detection, as some browsers limit API access
• Disable privacy extensions temporarily if they block WebGL or Device Memory APIs
• If GPU info shows as unknown, check that hardware acceleration is enabled in your browser settings

How to Find Your IMEI, Serial Number, and Phone Number

The Device Identity card above shows what your browser will tell us about your device. Identifiers like IMEI, ICCID, and phone number are never accessible from a web page — both iOS and modern Android explicitly block them, by design, to prevent tracking. To find them, use the steps below for your device.

What Are My PC Specs? Reading Your Results

If you landed here asking "what are my specs?", this page answers it without a download or a registry dig. Open it on the machine you want to check and the readings populate automatically. Here is how to translate each card into the spec sheet people actually quote:

• CPU — the core count shown is your logical processor count, not physical cores. Most modern CPUs run two threads per core (Intel Hyper-Threading, AMD SMT), so a 6-core chip typically reports 12. A reading of 8, 12, or 16 is normal for a mainstream laptop or desktop. The browser may report a slightly lower number than your full thread count, so treat it as a floor, not an exact spec.
• GPU — the renderer string names your graphics adapter via WebGL. On a laptop with switchable graphics you may see the integrated GPU (Intel Iris, AMD Radeon Graphics, Apple M-series) rather than a discrete card, because the browser usually runs on the power-saving GPU. For the full unmasked renderer, run the GPU test.
• RAM — this is a coarse, privacy-bucketed figure (see the next section). It confirms you have at least a certain amount, not the exact installed total.
• Display — resolution times pixel ratio gives the effective sharpness. A 2560×1440 panel reporting a pixel ratio of 1 is running native; a Retina or HiDPI screen reports a higher ratio. The screen test and refresh-rate test dig deeper.
• OS & browser — the platform, OS version, and architecture (for example x86-64 vs arm64) tell you whether you are on a 64-bit or Apple-Silicon machine, which matters when checking software compatibility.

Why the Browser Shows Only ~8 GB RAM (and Hides Your Model)

A browser cannot read everything a native app can, and that is by design. We would rather explain the limits honestly than display a number we cannot stand behind:

• RAM is capped at 8 GB. The Device Memory API only ever returns one of 0.25, 0.5, 1, 2, 4, or 8 GB, rounded down to the nearest bucket and capped at 8. A machine with 16, 32, or 64 GB all report 8. There is no web API anywhere that can read the true installed total above 8 GB — if a site claims to, it is guessing. To see your real RAM, check Task Manager → Performance → Memory on Windows, or the Apple menu → About This Mac on macOS.
• Your exact model is often masked. Desktop browsers, iOS Safari, and Firefox return an empty device-model string to prevent fingerprinting. The model field is only populated on Android Chromium browsers. This is a privacy feature, not a bug.
• The GPU renderer may be generalized. Some browsers report a generic name or block the renderer extension entirely. Firefox is the most aggressive here.

These caps exist so that a website cannot combine your exact RAM, model, and GPU into a unique fingerprint that tracks you across the web. The trade-off is that browser-based spec checks give you a confident floor ("at least 8 GB, at least 12 threads") rather than an exact inventory. For warranty or resale, read your serial and model from the device itself using the steps further up this page.

Can My PC Run This Game? A Quick Spec Check

Before buying a game or upgrading, you can sanity-check your machine against its requirements right here — no download, no account. Match the readings on this page to the game's published minimum and recommended specs:

1. CPU threads — compare your logical core count to the listed processor. Most modern titles want a 4-core / 8-thread chip at minimum; a reading of 8 or higher clears that bar comfortably.
2. GPU — this is usually the deciding factor. Note your renderer here, then look it up against the game's required card. If the page shows an integrated GPU and the game wants a discrete one, that is your bottleneck. Run the GPU test to confirm WebGL 2 / WebGPU support and the exact adapter.
3. RAM — if this page reports 8, you have at least 8 GB, which meets the minimum for most current games. Many recommended specs ask for 16 GB; verify the true total in Task Manager or About This Mac since the browser cannot read above 8.
4. OS & architecture — confirm your OS version and that you are on 64-bit (x86-64 or arm64). A handful of older titles will not run on Apple Silicon without a translation layer.

For the smoothness side of the equation, your monitor matters too: a fast panel is wasted if the refresh rate is set low. Confirm it with the refresh-rate test, and check your connection for online play with the internet speed test.
