NVIDIA Nsight™ Graphics is a standalone developer tool with ray-tracing support that enables you to debug, profile, and export frames built with Direct3D, Vulkan, OpenGL, OpenVR, and the Oculus SDK. It offers an unparalleled level of access into the performance markers of your graphics API, helping you find optimization opportunities that couldn't be identified without looking under the GPU's hood.

Features

• Track GPU Performance: Analyze GPU throughput and utilization with minimal overhead for non-biased activity data. Drill down into critical performance markers and inspect hardware unit throughputs, cache hit rates, memory throughput, and more.
• Analyze GPU Traces: Supports automated performance analysis on captured GPU traces, with deep profiling of streaming multiprocessor (SM) performance.
• Debug Ray-Tracing and Shaders: Debug ray-tracing API calls and examine their state. The Ray Tracing Inspector exposes acceleration structures, helping you optimize how rays intersect with the geometry in your scene.
• Profile Ray-Tracing Shaders: The Shader Profiler exposes shader data, including stalls and the reasons they occurred. The Real-Time Shader Profiler allows you to view the most expensive shaders at each moment in real-time.
• Export C++ Capture: Create a self-contained C++ project that allows for frame analysis in a reduced CPU-load scenario, enabling repeatable and isolated analysis.

Benefits

• Enhanced Performance: Optimize graphics applications by identifying and resolving performance bottlenecks.
• Detailed Insights: Gain comprehensive insights into GPU performance, from memory workload to source code efficiency.
• Flexibility: Supports various development environments and platforms, including desktop, mobile, cloud, and HPC.
• Ease of Use: Offers user-friendly interfaces and integration with popular development environments.
• Advanced Profiling: Enables detailed performance analysis and debugging for CUDA, graphics, and deep learning applications.
