What program to use to measure GPU Load?

I have a EVGA GTX260 55nm. Is there a program to measure GPU usage just like CPU usage. I want to see how much of a load does my GPU use in CUDA based applications.

I'm not trying to measure the temps or fan speed. I have programs for that, but I haven't had any luck trying to find a decent GPU usage monitor.

Thanks.

GPU-Z is good, but it can't measure the actual GPU load...it just show the core GPU clock and if there is a load on the gpu then it tells you what the GPU clock is set at. I would like something where I can see the actual percentage of the load on the GPU.

Thanks for your response.

I could be wrong, but if you're let's say playing a 3D game, then wouldn't the video card be basically at 100% load all the time, because it is always trying to render more frames per second?

(not sure if the same is true with vsync enabled?)



edit... oh right, if the game was CPU limited then this might not be true

I use RivaTuner (I find it easier to read its graph than GPUz's little bar).

I have a GTX260 C216 and don't get a % load either, pretty sure it only works with ATI. ;)
