There was a good tool called jockey, but I don't know why it was removed
and what replaced it.

For you graphics card, you have 2 options:
- Nouveau: Free opensource driver for nvidia cards
- Proprietary driver from Nvidia

I recommend you use the proprietary driver for maximum performance. For
better compatibility and integration, use nouveau the opensource one.

 To check if the proprietary driver is installed run:
ubuntu-drivers debug

at the bottom it will list each compatible proprietary driver and
whether it's installed or not.

Other tools that may help you:
nvidia-smi
nvidia-settings
glxinfo | egrep "OpenGL vendor|OpenGL renderer*"
