GPU not Showing in System Monitor

System Monitor does not show my AMD Radeon 5700 XT GPU.

Should it?
If not, can I add it to System Monitor?

I did some reading and I've seen comments about updating the GPU driver and switching to x11 desktop. I did both but I still don't see the GPU.
I also read that I should check that my GPU is selected in 'additional drivers', but I think that is only relevant for nvidia, as I see nothing listed.

In my BIOS secure boot and quick boot are Off. And my PCIE slot with my GPU is select as the first.

I can play games (Metro 2033 and Conan Exiles as example) and my GPU is working well.

The GPU isn't shown in the preinstalled System Monitor. You could use instead Mission Center or Resources. Both are available in Gnome Software as Flatpak. I personally use Mission Center and it works fine for me.

Thanks Ponce-De-Leon.
It's good to know that what I am seeing with System Monitor is normal.

I have installed Mission Center to compare with System Monitor.
