Host GPU

windows linux

HostGPUModule retrieves basic information about GPU: index, vendor and product name.

Details

It heavily relies on ghw. On Linux it reads /sys/class/drm/ folder. On Windows, it performs the following WMI query:

SELECT Caption, CreationClassName, Description, DeviceID, Manufacturer, Name, PNPClass, PNPDeviceID FROM Win32_PnPEntity

On windows 11, the local user account must have administrator permissions (it does not mean it must be run as root). ghw: https://github.com/jaypipes/ghw
