Windows 10: How do I rename multiple GPUS/Add a description to a specific GPU?

If I have a computer with a bunch of GPUS running, how can I name the GPUS so that I can identify them later on? When I look in device manager, they're all the same. I found a way to edit the friendly name, but that only seemed to work for the first GPU that I plugged in.

Basically I have a bunch of GPU's, and I need some way of knowing which one is causing a problem. driver information seems to constantly change on me, so if I index using the first installation date, that isn't consistent. The PCI bus # also seems inconsistent, because it changes when I plug in another GPU.

Under the device properties > details, there are a bunch of different values, are any of these tied directly to the specific GPU that I'm installing?

Hi Michael

Open Device Manager (accessible by right clicking your Start Button)

Expand the Display Adapters section

You should see your GPU listed, along with possibly an integrated graphics option

If that is no listed there:

Boot into BIOS (start your system, then on the manufacturers screen, repeatedly press the appropriate key (usually F2) to enter BIOS

Under System Information, you should find your GPU listed

If you still cannot find the GPU listing, what is the Make and exact Model No. of your PC - that will be printed on a sticker on the bottom casing . ..

I would like to suggest 2 more things if you don't mind,
1. Seat the GPU in another slot, if possible, and see if that helps anything
2. Use the GPU in another system, if possible, this is a step to determine that it is really the GPU and not multiple defective slots or something else from the system.

Yes. Usually, multiple GPUs work if there is a heavy load.
