GPU Support
The NVML library does not support some of the queries for GPUs coming before the
Kepler microarchitecture. Anything starting at GeForce 600, GeForce 800M and
successor should work fine. For more information about supported GPUs please
take a look at the NVML documentation.
Build
Two libraries are required:
The NVIDIA Management Library (NVML) which comes with the GPU driver.
This queries the GPU for information.
The ncurses library driving the user interface.
This makes the screen look beautiful.
