Get System Specs (memory, processor etc...) in C#?

[Mateusz Rajca]

Hello,

I would like to know how to find the specs of the current running system
such as the memory amount and processor speed in C#?

Hello Mateusz,

use WMI for this. (call wmic.exe and type "cpu", "memlogical " for example
to see info)
To get info abt physical memmory use samble below. For CPU use "SELECT *
FROM Win32_Processor "

static void Main(string[] args)
{
double totalCapacity = 0;
ObjectQuery objectQuery = new ObjectQuery("se lect * from
Win32_PhysicalM emory");
ManagementObjec tSearcher searcher = new
ManagementObjec tSearcher(objec tQuery);
ManagementObjec tCollection vals = searcher.Get();
foreach(Managem entObject val in vals)
{
totalCapacity += System.Convert. ToDouble(val.Ge tPropertyValue( "Capacity") );
}

Console.WriteLi ne("Total Machine Memory = " + totalCapacity.T oString() + "
Bytes");
Console.WriteLi ne("Total Machine Memory = " + (totalCapacity / 1024) + "
KiloBytes");
Console.WriteLi ne("Total Machine Memory = " + (totalCapacity / 1048576) + "
MegaBytes");
Console.WriteLi ne("Total Machine Memory = " + (totalCapacity / 1073741824 )
+ " GigaBytes");
Console.ReadLin e();

}
