OCCT v17 arrives with modular Memory Test and performance upgrades

OCCT v17 has officially launched as a stable release, introducing a completely redesigned modular Memory Test alongside a new launcher, reduced memory consumption, and QoL improvements.

This launch follows an initial beta testing phase in April. The developers previously stated that while the overhaul draws inspiration from established testing methodologies such as TestMem5 and MemTest86, the entire implementation was built from the ground up. The updated Memory Test replaces the older framework with a modular architecture featuring 16 individual testing blocks. According to OCCT (via Videocardz), these blocks allow users to create customised memory stress tests by tweaking how data is written, moved, looped, and verified during system validation.

This update also includes six distinct configuration presets, highlighted by a community-contributed option named AM5 Margin Probe, designed by ‘srshanks'. Further entries are planned for future updates.

System performance also gets a notable bump through a brand-new launcher that reduces application startup times by up to 30%. Furthermore, overall software memory consumption has decreased by 15-30%, as OCCT now streams monitoring data directly to disk. The release notes also highlight improved support for portable installation paths, a new automatic update delivery engine, and hardened crash recovery procedures.

KitGuru says: The overhaul to the memory testing suite on OCCT should give overclockers and system builders far more granular control when tracking down memory instability.
