This article describes the steps you can take to check your computer specs and display details of hardware installed when using Windows 11.
When you want to know what hardware (RAMS, Hard Disk, Adapters) is installed on your computer, there are multiple ways to find out. If you can’t find the documentation that accompanies your computer, these tools can help you determine the system specs.
Most computers will have a serial number or identification tag that you can use to look up details on the manufacturer’s website. Typing in the tag or serial number will get you specs and detailed information about the hardware installed when you purchased the computer.
Windows also has some tools that you can use to provide the same information, and below are the steps to use to find out.

The About pane is in the Settings app. Below is how to find it.
First, open the Settings app. You can also press the (Windows key + I) keyboard shortcut to launch the app.

On the right, select the About tile to expand.

On the System -> About pane, under Device specifications, you will find details about your computer.

The information above is not quite detailed, but it’s a start.
