Ok.. here it goes.. download ya pocket mechanic here

Its a full feature 9 day trial version.. good enough for performing a battery of test...

please repeat 5 times for consistency. I notice that the version is up but no worries as most changes is geared for new module or compatibility. E.g. version 1.30 was intro for my Transcend.

Plus, no running of performance boasting s/w like overclocking tool. My initial results are inaccurate because I'm overclocking my h2210 at 472Mhz.

p.s ~ leave more details on the manufactuer to identify the model
