Title, I am unsure if games are using my GPU or if using my CPU, or maybe my GPU through my CPU, I do not know, something is using my GPU, but I think its just KDE plasma, and I would like to know definitively how to find out

nvtopwill show you what processes are using your GPU.Thanks til. After 30+ years using Linux exclusively. That is very useful.
Admittedly GPUs were not a thing when I started. It’s cool to learn new useful things. Thanks.
…and for anyone like me who was unsure, yes it works equivalently for AMD. I think Intel as well, but I’m not sure about that.
The master branch works well with Intel ARC, I contributed a lot of the ARC changes. I don’t think they’ve made it into a release yet though.
Edit: 3.2.0 has them: https://github.com/Syllo/nvtop/releases/tag/3.2.0
Thank you for your contributions!
+1 for nvtop, helped me check my vram usage
Thanks for the tip! I wasn’t aware of nvtop, and I’m thoroughly pleased that’s no longer the case.
does it work for multi gpu systems?
The screenshot in the readme suggests it does, but I couldn’t say for myself. I’m not that rich.
