HWiNFO with updates for Intel, AMD nad NVIDIA chips
HWiNFO 8.40 expands platform detection for Intel’s next wave of mobile and desktop parts. The update adds new IDs for Nova Lake-H/HX (400H/HX) , Arrow Lake Refresh (200K+), and Panther Lake SKUs (300), so early systems show up with the right names and sensor mappings.
Nova Lake gets extra attention in this build. HWiNFO lists enhanced support for Nova Lake-H/HX and also updates Nova Lake telemetry, which should help keep sensor readouts consistent as OEM designs start to appear.
Arrow Lake Refresh and Panther Lake also get fresh SKU coverage. HWiNFO fixes Arrow Lake-S reporting on two core layouts, listed as 4P+4E and 6P+12E.
On the monitoring side, HWiNFO now exposes dedicated NPU sensors for AMD and Qualcomm, and it adds AMD EXPO 1.20 support for newer DDR5 profile reporting. The release also brings an integrated stress test tool and increases ETW buffers for PresentMon. HWiNFO 8.40 was posted on January 8, 2026.
