GPU Information
Detect your graphics card model, WebGL capabilities, and GPU renderer information directly from the browser.

How Does the GPU Information Tool Work?
- The tool creates a WebGL context and reads the GPU renderer information.
- The WEBGL_debug_renderer_info extension provides the actual GPU model name.
- Additional parameters like texture size limits show GPU capabilities.
- All detection happens locally in your browser.
Frequently Asked Questions
- Why does it show a different GPU than I have?
- If you have a laptop with dual graphics (integrated + dedicated), the browser may use the integrated GPU by default to save power. You can change this in your GPU driver settings.
- Why does the GPU renderer show 'ANGLE' or 'SwiftShader'?
- ANGLE is a translation layer that converts WebGL to DirectX/Metal/Vulkan. SwiftShader is a software renderer used when hardware acceleration is disabled. Both are normal.
- Can I run GPU benchmarks in the browser?
- This tool provides information about your GPU, not benchmarks. Browser-based GPU tests are limited by WebGL's capabilities and cannot fully stress-test a GPU like native benchmarking tools.
