Temps of cpu and gpu on display when gaming

[cheese66]

Hello ubuntuforums,

Is there any repo software available to always sticky show the temps of cpu and gpu on the screen on top of the screen somewhere in a corner, so that I can always see the temps of my pc when gaming?

Thnx!

Conky with the above window_hint would probably do that.

Some desktop environments have panel indicators but the GPU has no support on my desktop. A conky configuration will work depending how much screen is used when gaming. It is possible to create a horizontal conky that can be placed on the top/bottom edge of the screen, but this can take a little work and at least for me was fun. Many examples of conky here.

Conky will only display above a game when played in windowed mode.
eg a normal conky window set above

In xfce my Super+d (toggle desktop) button is still active in fullscreen games
so I can have a quicklook at my conky monitor.
