GPU's model can be shown by this package mesa-utils

type this in your terminal sudo apt-get install mesa-utils

Do you have only nvidia's GPU? (comment below please so I can edit this post! ;) ) If you have switchable GPUs, and are using bublebee I recommend do not try to change anything in your system. If not try and install mesa-utils
