How is the support of Nvidia Drivers in 2024 for Linux users
Ml training: you have no choice.th They're marginally good enough for everything else, but for ai/cuda/cl they're the gold standard. They're saying they're going OSS in the next year or so, here's hoping. For graphics I prefer amd, it's fully OSS and the drivers are surprisingly solid, potentially the best out there.

I got good results in the past with valgrind's callgrind for timing and massif for memory consumption and bottlenecks. They're maybe a bit old-fashioned but if it works it works. More on reddit.com

April 11, 2020Best GPU for linux gaming?
I have a current-gen Nvidia card and an older AMD card at my disposal, so here's what I can tell you: Nvidia works absolutely perfectly with the proprietary driver on X. Nvidia is unusable on Wayland. Older cards can use nouveau for Wayland support, but you'd give up all of your gaming performance in exchange. Ampere cards do not work acceptably with nouveau even in X. AMD works for both Wayland and X. The in-game performance between AMD and Nvidia cards is similar in Linux as in Windows; a 3080 will still beat a 6800 in Linux. Basically, if all you're after is gaming performance, Nvidia is fine, so go with whichever card makes sense for your budget and desired performance. If you're heavier into the Linux side of things, bear in mind that you'll be stuck on X for now if you go Nvidia. More on reddit.com

A small number of metrics using native calls or the NVIDIA APIs NVAPI or NVML were used to minimize measurement impact. When an NVIDIA GPU is not detected, all other metrics can be collected for comparing CPU only and GPU workloads. I initially attempted to stay away from using WMI based counters due to additional overhead incurred.

Check and Monitor Active GPU in Linux | Baeldung on Linux
March 25, 2025 - Although they’re often barebone, Linux machines sometimes have a graphical processing unit (GPU), also known as a video or graphics card. Be it for cryptocurrency mining, a gaming server, or just for a better desktop experience, active graphics card monitoring and control can be essential. In this tutorial, we’ll discuss ways to check which GPU is currently active and in use.
