Dacris Benchmarks SDK
The Dacris Benchmarks SDK (available starting in version 8.1) supports CPU, RAM, hard drive, and 3D testing. It also has a built-in CPU stress test (to check CPU reliability) and a system information provider for gathering system information.
The SDK is compatible with .NET applications (.NET 2.0 or higher) and runs on Windows XP SP2 & later OSes. You can use it from Visual Studio 2005 & later versions.
The SDK is intended for internal applications only (i.e. applications distributed only within your organization). If you would like to create a public application with the Dacris Benchmarks SDK, please contact us (contact@dacris.com) and we will give you a quote for a royalty-free public license.
Licensing
The SDK is sold together with Dacris Benchmarks, with an internal use license, allowing you to distribute the SDK on as many PCs as you are allowed to distribute Dacris Benchmarks. For example, if you have a 2-PC license of Dacris Benchmarks, you can only distribute the SDK onto at most 2 PCs.
