 If multiple GPUs are available, it's worth to query and select the desired GPU(s)
 based on properties.

+Querying GPUs
 --------------------------------------------------------------------------------
 
 The properties of a gpu can be queried using :cpp:func:`hipGetDeviceProperties`,
 which returns a struct of :cpp:struct:`hipDeviceProp_t`. This struct can be
 used to identify a device or give an overview of hardware characteristics, that
