Is conky still a thing? I used it for that when I used an exclusively passive cooled PC a few years ago. You were able to easily create bar graphs in a config file and even include output of commands.

I currently use a combo of btop and radeontop for this. For GPU monitoring I’ve also used nvtop.

Nvtop is really solid. I like that it can show hardware encode/decode percentages too.

and NVTop shows on which GPU the process is situated, which is invaluable if you have multiple GPUs.

On KDE there’s System Monitor, which you can customize to show graphs for CPU usage and temp, among other things, and GPU usage and temp too.

For in-game monitoring there’s Mangohud, also very customizable on what you can show in the overlay

I use “GtkStressTesting” for tracking system’s health, although it’s actually a Benchmarking tool.

From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

Linux is a family of open source Unix-like operating systems based on the Linux kernel, an operating system kernel first released on September 17, 1991 by Linus Torvalds. Linux is typically packaged in a Linux distribution (or distro for short).

Distributions include the Linux kernel and supporting system software and libraries, many of which are provided by the GNU Project. Many Linux distributions use the word “Linux” in their name, but the Free Software Foundation uses the name GNU/Linux to emphasize the importance of GNU software, causing some controversy.
