Why thank you FrankenCub, I try.
Yup, I agree these that [ ]: blocks look strange but it's a users option
If your taking them out make two changes
Above TEXT in the colour section change color9 to this:
Code:
color9 FF0000 #255 0 0 Red
Then change that sections to:
Code:
TEXT
${color9}SYSTEM ${hr 1}${color}
${nodename}
${sysname} ${kernel} Uptime: ${uptime}
There is no sense in changing the colour to green and then back to the default.
Now do a search|replace ${color green} to ${color3} - replace all
Another search|replace ${color ffff00} to ${color8} - replace the one
As for sensors to get the temp I use the "platform" method ... there are three options:
- the old awk, grep, sed way - requires an ${exec} command
- using hwmon ${hwmon} - sometimes they change, and
- platform ${platform} - stable always the same.
mrpeachy updated the HowTo at Conky PitStop
And like most people while "some" sensors readings are easy to figure out what about temperatures. Drives a person
MAD ...
mad I tell you ...
MAD! ... just trying to figuring them out.
I have 3 temp1's a temp2 and a temp 3 - but what are they for:
Code:

A little while back I found
inxi - personally I think it should be a default install on all distros. Do yourself a favour and check it out.

I made aliases -
s11 is the short display. You should see the full display. Now it's easy to match the temps - fan speeds etc with the right places they are used.
hddtemp - is still required for hard drives
Examples:
Code:
${execi 15 hddtemp -n /dev/sda}°
${execi 15 hddtemp -n /dev/sdb}°
${execi 15 hddtemp -n /dev/sdc}°
This is what I use in my main conky for temps:
Code:
${color3}CPU: ${color}${platform f71882fg.2560 temp 1}°${goto 120}${color3}SDA: ${color}${execi 15 hddtemp -n /dev/sda}°${goto 222}${color3}GPU: ${color}${nvidia temp}° ${alignr 5}${color3}MB: ${color}${platform f71882fg.2560 temp 2}°

Another thing you might want to do is tidy up your Processes area. Check out the bottom of the page where it says:
Thanks to Jackzor & djyoung4, for making me aware of this missing tidbit:
NOTE: If you are using the code I gave you the 'pad_percents 2' line is already there.
And maybe add a PROCESSES line in there while your at it:
Code:
${color9}PROCESSES ${hr 1}${color}
${color3}NAME ${alignr}PID CPU% MEM%
See it works well - I did the top 4 lines, the bottom 4 are your method:
