What is I-Nex?

I-Nex is an application that gathers information for hardware components available on your system and displays it using an user interface similar to the popular Windows tool CPU-Z.

I-Nex can display information for the following components: CPU, GPU, Motherboard, Sound, Hard disks, RAM, Network and USB as well as some system info like the hostname, Linux distribution and version, Xorg, GCC, GLX versions and Linux Kernel info.

Besides being able to display hardware information, I-Nex can also generate an advanced report for which you can select what to include and optionally send the report to a service such as Pastebin (and others). It also features an option to take a screenshot of the I-Nex window directly from the application.

The difference between I-Nex and the other hardware information GUI tools available for Linux is that the information is better organized and is displayed faster (than lshw-gtk for instance). Also, the hardware information is presented in a way that’s easier to understand than other such tools.

You can get most of what you have shown in your screen shots with cpuinfo and meminfo in Linux and that means I don't see any advantage to using your program. What would benefit someone using linux is something more than that, such as SPD memory information, which no one has any idea that your program shows any of that since you mysteriously skipped a screen shot of the memory tab. By the way, CPU-Z has memory SPD, such as CAS information. See:

I don't see any indication your program does that, which makes it less like CPU-Z.

My copy of i-nex v.7.6.0 run on Kubuntu 18.04.2 has SPD as a beta feature. However, one needs to sudo modprobe eeprom first before the SPD data can be read, this is common with other programs, like hwinfo, on my system.

Said about I-Nex as an alternative

Easily lists all the possible needed infos I could think I would ever ask for, and actually lists more. Although that's an excellent tool wich will satisfy all my limited needs in the matter, I did not try any other alternative proposed and so I can't tell if there are any better, but I-Nex was my choice.
