Our documentation for GPU support is located here - https://github.com/ollama/ollama/blob/main/docs/gpu.md

Once installed, you can use ollama ps to see if the models have loaded into your GPU or are running on CPU. More details can be found in the server log and we will log if we fail to discover GPUs or find GPUs that aren't compatible. In the future we may add more informational commands to show you what GPUs we discovered and if we discovered any that aren't compatible.
