#### GPU Architecture, Process Node, VRAM Bandwidth, Live Sensors & 3D Benchmark

GPU-Z by TC Studio is a professional graphics card hardware profiler,
real-time telemetry sensor monitor, and 3D render benchmark suite for Linux.

Key Features:

* Tab 1 — Graphics Card Specifications: Reads 100% real hardware parameters
  directly from NVML / CUDA / DRM / PCI / DXG (/sys/bus/pci/devices, /sys/class/drm,
  /dev/dxg, libnvidia-ml, libcuda, /usr/share/misc/pci.ids) including GPU Name,
  Architecture & Process Node, Die Size, VBIOS Version, PCI Vendor/Device/Subvendor ID,
  PCIe Link Generation & Width, Unified Shaders/CUDA Cores, TMUs/ROPs/RT Cores,
  GDDR Memory Size, Bus Width, Memory Bandwidth (GB/s), L2 Cache, and Clocks.
* Tab 2 — Real-Time Sensors: Live scrolling sparkline telemetry graphs for GPU Core
  Clock, Memory Clock, Video Clock, GPU Temperature, GPU Load %, Memory Controller
  Load %, Dedicated VRAM Usage, Board Power Draw (W), CPU Load %, and Linux Thermal
  Cooling Devices (/sys/class/thermal, /sys/class/hwmon).
* Tab 3 — Graphics & Compute Capabilities: Inspects installed OpenGL, EGL, Vulkan,
  CUDA, DirectX 12 (WSL2 d3d12/dxcore), NVENC/NVDEC, and DRM shared libraries on disk
  with exact sizes and real SHA-256 hashes (plus 1-click VirusTotal check) and deep
  CUDA/DRM hardware compute attributes.
* Tab 4 — Live 3D Render & Shader Matrix Benchmark: Runs a real-time 3D shaded mesh
  and pixel shader framebuffer benchmark measuring live FPS, Frame Time (ms),
  Pixel Fillrate (MPixels/s), Geometry Throughput (KPolys/s), and Matrix GFLOPS,
  with JSON/TXT Validation Report export.
* Bilingual UI: Instant toggle between Vietnamese (Tiếng Việt) and English.

## Enable snaps on openSUSE and install TC GPU Inspector

Snaps are applications packaged with all their dependencies to run on all popular Linux distributions from a single build. They update automatically and roll back gracefully.

Snaps are discoverable and installable from the [Snap Store](https://snapcraft.io/store), an app store with an audience of millions.

### Enable snapd

Snap can be installed from the command line on openSUSE Leap 15.x and Tumbleweed.

You need first add the *snappy* repository from the terminal. Choose the appropriate command depending on your installed openSUSE flavor.

Tumbleweed:

```
sudo zypper addrepo --refresh https://download.opensuse.org/repositories/system:/snappy/openSUSE_Tumbleweed snappy
```

Leap 15.x:

```
sudo zypper addrepo --refresh https://download.opensuse.org/repositories/system:/snappy/openSUSE_Leap_15.6 snappy
```

If needed, Swap out `openSUSE_Leap_15.` for, `openSUSE_Leap_16.0` if you’re using a different version of openSUSE.

With the repository added, import its GPG key:

```
sudo zypper --gpg-auto-import-keys refresh
```

Finally, upgrade the package cache to include the new *snappy* repository:

```
sudo zypper dup --from snappy
```

Snap can now be installed with the following:

```
sudo zypper install snapd
```

You then need to either reboot, logout/login or `source /etc/profile` to have /snap/bin added to PATH.
Additionally, enable and start both the *snapd* and the *snapd.apparmor* services with the following commands:

```
sudo systemctl enable --now snapd
sudo systemctl enable --now snapd.apparmor
```

### Install TC GPU Inspector

To install TC GPU Inspector, simply use the following command:

```
