I didn't know how to find the GPU monitor on system monitor. Now I found mission center, that you can download from flathub, which gives you a simple performance + the GPU monitoring that I wanted. (Maybe system monitor has it, I'm just too dumb to find it.)

It's not there by default. You have to 'Edit Page', and add or edit a row to add the GPU sensors

Well that's asinine. WTF is that not there by default?

KDE system monitor doesn't support Intel GPU unfortunately.

For me in ksystemmonitor, it's extremely broken in Nvidia so stopped trying , and also switched to mission center a while ago which just works

[-]

mrvictorywin@reddit

Nvidia stopped working due to changes in output of nvidia-smi command but this was fixed long ago.

Dude this is awesome! Have been fed up with all the half-assed monitor applications that are available on Linux, they just either don't give the information I want or are WAY to verbose, this one is by far the best. One of the only things I missed from Windows!

For a second while scrolling i thought someone posted a picture of the windows task manager xD

But the tool looks great.. Definitely gonna take a look at it!

[-]

Vittulima@reddit

Mission Center is purposefully made to be like the Windows task manager. It's pretty neat.

[-]

Daniel_mfg@reddit

Seems like it is available on AUR as well... Will definitely give it a try :D

kalzEOS@reddit

There is always a new app that I wish I have known about a long time ago. Thank you for this.

[-]

Shining_prox@reddit

Is that… a task manager clone? 😱

[-]

Takemitchi-kun@reddit (OP)

Unfortunately, I have a windows thing on my linux, even though I hate windows. But task manager is easy to read so its good.

System monitor in which DE? For example in KDE system monitor, GPU is there, but hard to help if people don't know what you are using

[-]

Takemitchi-kun@reddit (OP)

Yeah, I use KDE on Manjaro. I tried to open any option menus on the system monitor, but couldnt find anything.

[-]

KnowZeroX@reddit

On KDE, let us say you want to add it to the Overview, click Edit Page

You will see things glow green when you highlight over them, we will add it to top row so click the top row(make sure its the highest green box)

Then buttons will pop up, click Add-> Column

You will see System Monitor Sensor appear, click on it

On the right, you will see:

Total Sensors - these will show up in the middle

Sensors - this shows up in the chart and on the bottom as text

Text-Sensors - this shows up on the bottom as text

Now pick one of those, and go to GPU, pick the gpu you want to see and it will show up on your overview

Takemitchi-kun@reddit (OP)

Ill check it out. Thanks

Individual_Peach533@reddit

this is the only thing I miss from windows, and for a while system-monitoring-center provided this but was abandoned. Thanks for sharing this one, looks great

nvtop

JaZoray@reddit

my mission center does not seem to be aware of my GPU

[-]

matsnake86@reddit

Btop is all i need =)

[-]

InterestingVladimir@reddit

Possibly saving a click: press F5 to open GPU monitoring. If it doesn't work, check https://github.com/aristocratos/btop?tab=readme-ov-file#gpu-compatibility

[-]

PhotonicEmission@reddit

Hey, it's the only good app in Windows. Thank you!

[-]

jojo_the_mofo@reddit

You have to change preferences. If you want, you can even set KDE's system monitor as individual desktop widgets for cpu, gpu, etc like this.

[-]

musictrivianut@reddit

Can always try nvtop

[-]

Takemitchi-kun@reddit (OP)

Yeah, bit I heard it is isnt too optimized for intel gpus. I wanted something that voukd monitor both my xe graphics and nvidia card.

[-]

cla_ydoh@reddit

For the System monitor, you can build one yourself,. but it isn't the most clear process. However, there are new pagers you can download that may be useful. Look in the three-bar menu for "Get new Pages". There are a couple of GP related ones there.

rileyrgham@reddit

It doesn't.
