CLI monitoring with GPU overview

I recently started using and love it but I’d like it more if I could see some of my GPU stats.

Example: when I’m viewing applications that are running I can see the user, memory usage and cpu usage. I’d like to know the GPU usage as well.

Or split the CPU widget at the top to include stats about the GPU usage as well.

I know there are separate tools but ideally I’d like to just have one open without switching tabs.

I don’t know if there is a unified tool for that but I use btop and nvtop side by side. I don’t really care but if there is one, I’d like to know as well.

I’ve been using nvtop as

I don’t know what GPU you have, whether it is AMD, Nvidia or Intel, but if you use Nvidia, the standard tool is nvidia-smi (if you install the proprietary drivers from here with the optional cuda package, you can access the command) . You will need to combine it with the watch tool for real time info.

Otherwise, the one I prefer is nvitop.

I’ve seen Intel specific tools too, but don’t recall them. And I’m not familiar with AMD tools.

Oh, nvitop looks really nice, thanks! So far the only thing that seems to correctly read my GPUs data is a fork of the KDE system monitor widget 🤷‍♀️

governorkeagan OP ,

I’ve been using nvtop but I’ll have a look at nvitop as well. Thank you!

Just use a terminal multiplexer to split your screen (so you don’t need a separate tab), and then ceate an alias/session file with your monitoring programs so you can call it with a single command.

Like @muhyb, I too use btop and nvtop, and this is how it looks like in zellij: https://lemmy.nz/pictrs/image/2e8ad660-f844-4df2-b5ce-aebb0d61d918.png
