* Fixed Centrino Platform/ICH6-M settings
* Fixed Intel Pentium 4 illegal P-states being added to the table
* Fixed Intel Pentium 4 invalid current VID indication
* Proper Pentium 4 core frequency determination
* New Pentium M P-states table (removed bogus 7x FID)
* Removed -dump command-line option, feature moved to GUI
* Added new settings for AMD K8 cores revision E and higher
* Added support for AMD K8 dual-core processors (latest AMD driver required)
* Added separate Performance/Power Preference for AC and Battery modes

The RightMark Team is pleased to announce the new RAMTester tool that is meant for checking memory modules reliability under MS Windows (x86 and x64) on the example of virtual addresses. The idea of this utility is writing bit patterns into memory and then reading and comparing them with reference. The check performed is of qualitative nature. Since the new utility works only with free available physical memory at runtime, you can check any amount of memory that doesn't exceed this limit. The new utility works with SMP and HTT as well as various memory types, including SDRAM, DDRAM, RDRAM, etc.
