So basically what the topic is...

I know that it can default show

CPU Usage
RAM Usage

HOWEVER!!!!

I need

GPU Usage
&
GRAM Usage....

I have an 8800GTS and I would like to know the usage on the GPU when im running a simulation and how much ram its using to run the simulation to find out what I need to upgrade on my system.....

Thanks anyone who can help

ok bro. i checked out lcdstudio to see if it could be done, and from what i see rivatuner has some sort of direct hardware info out api built in..so any app can just pick up its info from there in realtime.. so moreless its a thing riva tuner can show in the hardware monitoring tab, click the red button(background monitoring) lcdstudio was then able to read it with its plugin, so im sure it can be done with lcdsmartie.

just thought i would put that bit of info out there. so now its not like anyone who can/wants to has to dive deep into the nvidia driver api and or hardware to get something like this working.

PLEASE PLEASE PLEASE!

Thank fellas.

Will look into it, but as far as I know it's not an nvidia api call, but a hack into drivers, wich I do not like!

Eh, we'll see after further investigations.

yea, but it seem that rivatuner hacks into the drivers, but you would just have to call the rivatuners hardware monitor api right?
