GPU PCIe Diagnostic & Bandwidth Analysis

A deterministic command-line tool for validating GPU PCIe link health, bandwidth, and real-world PCIe utilization using only observable hardware data.

This tool answers one question reliably:

Is my GPU’s PCIe link behaving as it should, and can I prove it?

No registry hacks. No BIOS assumptions. No “magic” optimizations.

Only measurable link state, copy throughput, and hardware counters.

What This Tool Does

This tool performs hardware-observable PCIe diagnostics and reports factual results with deterministic verdicts.

It measures and reports directly from GPU hardware:

PCIe current and maximum link generation and width (via NVML)
