How do I get the CPU speed and total physical ram in C#?
- by edude05
I need a simple way of checking how much ram and fast the CPU of the host PC is. I tried WMI however the code I'm using
private long getCPU()
{
ManagementClass mObject = new ManagementClass("Win32_Processor");
mObject.Get();
return (long)mObject.Properties["MaxClockSpeed"].Value;
}
Throws a null reference exception. Furthermore, WMI queries are a bit slow and I need to make a few to get all the specs. Is there a better way?
