GPU Monitor is a Windows gadget that monitors your NVIDIA or Radeon graphics cards.

Before we review GPU Monitor, it's important to know two things. First, Gadgets were removed from Windows as a security risk at one point. Second, to use Gadgets, you'll need to install 8GadgetPack or Desktop Gadgets Revived. These come with safe, tested gadgets, but you should be careful about adding any Gadgets beyond the included ones. While the threat of using third-party Gadgets isn't a big thing anymore, the possibility still exists.

We've removed all of our gadgets and rarely add any new ones, but GPU Monitor is safe, trusted, and tested.

Once installed, you can see a lot of detail, including:

GPU

Fan

GPU Load

Virtual Memory

MC Load

VE Load

SLI Status

Microsoft removed gadgets years ago, but if you have that ability already enabled, just double-click the Gadget (GPUMonitor.gadget) to install. However, it's likely you'll need a third-party tool like Gadgets Revived or * Gadget Pack to get it to work.



GPU Monitor provides all the monitoring details you want for your video card. GPU Monitor can use 5% of your CPU and 50B of memory, which shouldn't affect your computer use.
