How can I check the GPU/Memory load and other stats? I have Ubuntu 16.04 with an RX 480 with AMDGPU Pro drivers.

I've only been able to check the gpu temperature via sensors command.

Radeon Top did the trick for me in the end.

Although you do have to compile it.

Bonus advice:

When compiling this edit the Makefile and change amdgpu ?= 0 to amdgpu ?= 1. This will activate monitoring of RAM usage as well as the temperature.

    installation has been streamlined with: `sudo apt-get install radeontop`. see article here: https://awesomedetect.com/how-to-monitor-amd-ati-or-radeon-gpu-usage-in-linux/ – Marc Compere Aug 12 '20 at 12:45
  • On compiling the latest source on my 20.04.3 (5.11.0-37-generic) i'm getting `FATAL ERROR: xcb/dri2.h: no such file or directory` EDIT - install by `sudo apt install libxcb-dri2.0-dev` – Adnan Oct 14 '21 at 20:41

I only know GLXOSD. This is pretty much like MSI afterburner OSD for linux, but only works on OpenGL though.
