pyamdgpuinfo

AMD GPU information

Install

pip install pyamdgpuinfo

Only Linux is supported, using the AMDGPU driver.

The library is written using Cython, meaning that Cython and and a C compiler are needed to build and install from source. Additionally, libdrm development headers are required.

Precompiled wheels for Python 3.10-3.14 are the default method of install. This means that you don't need Cython or any other dependencies to install from PyPi.

Usage

Example:

>>> import pyamdgpuinfo
>>> pyamdgpuinfo.detect_gpus()
1 # we have 1 device present, so it'll be at index 0
>>> first_gpu = pyamdgpuinfo.get_gpu(0) # returns a GPUInfo object
>>> vram_usage = first_gpu.query_vram_usage()
>>> vram_usage
3954978816 # number of bytes in use

All documentation is in the docstrings of each function/class.

Available functions are (see docstrings for more info):

• detect_gpus - Returns the number of GPUs available
• get_gpu - Returns a GPUInfo object for the device index specified

GPUInfo methods (see docstring for class overview)

• start_utilisation_polling - Starts polling GPU functional units for utilisation statistics
• stop_utilisation_polling - Stops utilisation polling
• query_utilisation - Queries utilisation of different GPU parts
• query_max_clocks - Queries max GPU clocks
• query_sclk - Queries shader (core) clock
• query_mclk - Queries memory clock
• query_vram_usage - Queries VRAM usage
• query_gtt_usage - Queries GTT usage
• query_temperature - Queries temperature
• query_load - Queries GPU load
• query_power - Queries power consumption
• query_northbridge_voltage - Queries northbridge voltage
• query_graphics_voltage - Queries graphics voltage

VRAM and GTT sizes are available as an attribute of GPUInfo.
