GpuInfo

Lightweight GPU detection for .NET. Identify installed GPU vendors via WMI with zero heavyweight dependencies.

Install

dotnet add package GpuInfo

Usage

using GpuInfo;

if (Hardware.ContainsNvidia())
{
    Console.WriteLine("NVIDIA GPU detected");
}

if (Hardware.ContainsAti())
{
    Console.WriteLine("AMD/ATI GPU detected");
}

// Check for any vendor by name
if (Hardware.ContainsVendor("Intel"))
{
    Console.WriteLine("Intel GPU detected");
}

Why?

Some products need to detect the GPU vendor at runtime to apply driver-specific workarounds, toggle hardware acceleration, or log diagnostic information.

GpuInfo does one thing: tells you what GPU is installed. Fast, minimal, no surprises.

How it works

Queries Win32_VideoController via WMI and matches the Name property against the requested vendor string (case-insensitive).

Compatibility

Target	Supported
.NET Framework 4.6.1+	✅
.NET 6 / 8 / 10	✅
.NET Standard 2.0	✅

Note: WMI is Windows-only. These methods will throw on Linux/macOS. If you need cross-platform GPU detection, this isn't the package for you.
