Comments on Basic GPU usage monitoring

Basic GPU usage monitoring

How do you monitor GPU usage on Linux? I am most interested in a "% GPU usage" and maybe "GPU temp" statistic, not so much very detailed stuff.

If you are using KDE/Plasma, there should be a widget for the taskbar that shows GPU usage. Go to the same screen where you normally add widgets and look for a "system monitor" widget. In the configurations for it, there should be an option for monitoring GPU usage.

GNOME, too (4 comments)

GNOME also offers a "System Monitor" application, which comes pre-installed in Linux Mint (at least with Cinnamon). The "start menu" equivalent in this case will list this entry and it can be searched for as "system monitor" and also as "task manager" (for discoverability by users switching from Windows).

... That said, I can't seem to find any option to show GPU information in this application... ?

In Gnome? Or in KDE?

In Gnome (well, in Mint, which is running Cinnamon, which comes with a bunch of Gnome utilities). I guess it's effectively unrelated software with the same name. :/
