How can I monitor how much of the graphics card is used when I run a certain application? I want to see how much my application uses the GPU.
You can type DIXdiag by clicking on run(windows key+R) and pressing Enter. Multiple tabs are displayed for each aspect of your system.
If you want to find out which GPU a game is using, go to Task Manager and click on the Processes pane and enable the GPU Engine column. On the Performance tab, you'll find a list of the GPU types associated with the number.
Here's is how you can check your PC's system resource usage with Task Manager. Press CTRL + Shift + Esc to open Task Manager. Click the Performance tab. This tab displays your system's RAM, CPU, GPU, and disk usage, along with network info.
If you develop in Visual Studio 2013 and 2015 versions, you can use their GPU Usage tool:

Moreover, it seems you can diagnose any application with it, not only Visual Studio Projects:
In addition to Visual Studio projects you can also collect GPU usage data on any loose .exe applications that you have sitting around. Just open the executable as a solution in Visual Studio and then start up a diagnostics session and you can target it with GPU usage. This way if you are using some type of engine or alternative development environment you can still collect data on it as long as you end up with an executable.

From Unix.SE: A simple command-line utility called gpustat
now exists: https://github.com/wookayin/gpustat.
It is free software (MIT license) and is packaged in pypi. It is a wrapper of nvidia-smi
