Analogue of "Get-Counter" in C#

Question

Powershell has the useful Get-Counter tool. In particular, I'm interested in:

(Get-Counter -Counter '\GPU Process Memory(*)\Total Committed').CounterSamples

I want to find a similar solution in C#, i.e. calculate GPU memory values for each running process. My searches on the Internet were unsuccessful, maybe I use infidels keywords for the search.

Right now I'm calling this method in C# workaround:

using (PowerShell PS_GPUProcessMemory = 
    PowerShell.Create().AddScript(@"(Get-Counter -Counter '\GPU Process Memory(*)\Total Committed').CounterSamples"))
    {
        //Do something
    }

However, how can I do without Powershell? How to use C# to find GPU memory values for each running process? thanks

FWIW `Get-Counter` interfaces directly with the [PerformanceCounter API in Windows](https://learn.microsoft.com/en-us/windows/win32/api/pdh/) — Mathias R. Jessen, Apr 16 '20 at 14:45
Thanks. Trying to figure it out. How exactly to call ```\GPU Process Memory(*)\Total Committed```? — Кирилл Зацепин, Apr 16 '20 at 15:06
Judging by this issue in the situation with GPU, everything is not as simple as it seems. https://stackoverflow.com/questions/36389944/c-sharp-performance-counter-help-nvidia-gpu — Кирилл Зацепин, Apr 16 '20 at 18:32
