GPU Utilization

Question

Hello,

It's possible to query GPU Utilization using WMI or SNMP on windows devices?

Answer 1

Hello,

Thank you for posting in Q&A forum.

As far as I know, currently, WMI and SNMP do not provide a direct way to query GPU utilization on Windows devices.

Although WMI provides a wealth of system information query capabilities, it is mainly aimed at the management of system hardware and software, and is not directly designed to query GPU utilization, especially for discrete graphics cards such as NVIDIA or AMD.

SNMP is usually used to monitor the status of network devices such as routers, switches, etc., rather than PC hardware components such as GPUs. It also does not directly support querying GPU utilization.

For querying GPU utilization, a more common method is to use the nvidia-smi command-line tool to view GPU utilization, temperature, memory usage, etc. This tool is provided by NVIDIA with the graphics driver and can be used directly in the command prompt.
