Getting GPU Information

Question

I have a Dell Laptop. I Want to find GPU Info (Ubuntu 14.04).

 lshw -C display

 *-display               
       description: VGA compatible controller
       product: Broadwell-U Integrated Graphics
       vendor: Intel Corporation
       physical id: 2
       bus info: pci@0000:00:02.0
       version: 09
       width: 64 bits
       clock: 33MHz
       capabilities: msi pm vga_controller bus_master cap_list rom
       configuration: driver=i915 latency=0
       resources: irq:46 memory:f6000000-f6ffffff memory:d0000000-dfffffff ioport:f000(size=64)

THe about:gpu tab in chrome says:

GPU0    VENDOR = 0x1002, DEVICE= 0x6604
GPU1    VENDOR = 0x8086, DEVICE= 0x1616 *ACTIVE*

Now, I am confused. I bought the laptop with a AMD Radeon 2GB Video card.

Nowhere I see it.

How to get that information?

Output of command: lspci -k | grep -iEA3 '3d|vga'

    Subsystem: Dell Device 066f

    Kernel driver in use: radeon

Strange, lshw should have printed 2 *-display entries if you have a separate graphics card. Can you run it as root again (sudo lshw -C display) please and compare the results? — Byte Commander, Dec 28 '16 at 15:09
Can you also please add the output of lspci -k | grep -iEA3 '3d|vga'? — Byte Commander, Dec 28 '16 at 15:15
Not only the lspci output, the "GPU0 VENDOR = 0x1002, DEVICE= 0x6604" in Chrome is also showing the AMD GPU, 1002 is the vendor code for AMD, 6604 is the specific card id. — P.-H. Lin, Dec 28 '16 at 16:04

The command glxinfo will give you all available OpenGL information for the graphics processor, including its vendor name, if the drivers are correctly installed.

To get clock speed information, there is no standard tool.

For ATI/AMD GPUs, aticonfig --odgc will fetch the clock rates, and aticonfig --odgt will fetch the temperature data.
For NVIDIA GPUs, the nvclock program will fetch the same information.

I am not aware of an equivalent tool for the open source drivers or for Intel or other GPUs.

Other information on the hardware can be fetched from the lspci and lshw tools.

You can get detailed information about AMD graphics cards using radeon-profile(Github repository link). It provides temperature, clock, Vram usage etc.

Step1: sudo add-apt-repository ppa:radeon-profile/stable

Step 2:

sudo apt update
sudo apt install radeon-profile

Step 3: run radeon-profile

System specification:

Ubuntu 20.04 LTS
CPU: AMD® Ryzen 5 4600h
GPU: AMD® Radeon rx 5600m
