You can now use OCCT on Linux-based systems

OCCT is now available for Linux. This marks the culmination of three years of development, primarily focused on overhauling the software's underlying infrastructure. This expansion opens up new testing possibilities across a broader range of hardware, including gaming handhelds running SteamOS.

The Linux version of OCCT aims to replicate the functionality of its Windows counterpart, providing a comprehensive suite of tools for system stability and performance analysis. According to the OCCT developers, the feature set of the Linux and Windows versions is “exactly the same”, allowing for consistent cross-platform hardware testing.

With OCCT, users can test their CPU, GPU, and memory under heavy workloads to assess system stability and resilience. The software also monitors crucial system parameters, including temperature, voltage, and power consumption. OCCT for Linux is designed to be compatible with various popular Linux distributions, including Ubuntu, Debian, Fedora, Red Hat, and Arch Linux. Moreover, the Linux version features a simplified and intuitive interface, making it accessible to users of all technical skill levels.

While the Linux version was previously available in beta, it required a subscription. Now, it's freely available to all users. A paid version remains an option for those seeking advanced professional testing features or wanting to remove pop-up advertisements.
