Thank you, but nvidia-smi tool doesn't tell what make of memory is on my cards.



No - only for AMD cards. For NVIDIA maybe the nvidia-smi tool have all the info you need.


A couple questions, will it work with Nvidia cards? And how do you install it in SMOS? 


SMOS is not windows.



Can someone that actually knows what there talking about help me? In SMOS how can I tell what make memory my video cards have?


Use GPU-Z to figure that out.

Install "amdmeminfo" - not sure if Tytanick has this utility built in already in latest image.

We discussed this utility extensively last year when flashing BIOS from SMOS using atiflash for Linux.

Sample output from amdmeminfo as follows, basically gives you most GPU information including memory type, PCI slot location etc.
