I'm looking for some sort of tool that can tell me my GPU utilization in Linux. I'm running a Nvidia GTX 560TI.
nvidia-smi shows me some information, but not utilization, which it marks as N/A.
Does anyone know of any utility that does this?

Re: Utility to monitor Nvidia GPU utilization?
I don't know if it is of any use, but it is possible to get the GPU frequency and memory frequency to show in conky, see:

I believe it also should be visible somewhere in the nvidia-settings:
For both methods you probably need to have installed the proprietary nvidia drivers. Other than that and the nvidia-smi command, I would have no idea.

Re: Utility to monitor Nvidia GPU utilization?
I believe Nvidia's utilities only fully support a few select GPUs. If nvidia-smi doesn't provide you with the information I can't imagine any other utility would either.

nvidia-smi doesn't show the gpu load for me neither, but I can get the gpu frequency in conky and there is also some gpu load indication showing in the nvidia-settingsJamesc359 wrote:I believe Nvidia's utilities only fully support a few select GPUs.

Re: Utility to monitor Nvidia GPU utilization?
just try gkrellm (synaptics). It works for my nvidia-card (590 gtx) even with quad-sli
gkrellm has several extensions like cpu sensor, velocity, for hdd, network and some more
have fun

Re: Utility to monitor Nvidia GPU utilization?
Thanks very much! Does it show GPU utilization for your GTX 590 by default, or did you have to install an additional component?WhiteNinja wrote:just try gkrellm (synaptics). It works for my nvidia-card (590 gtx) even with quad-sli
