Mangohud works really great for this inside a game, but outside of that I am not sure what to turn to check temps at idle.

I would prefer a GUI tool (QT since I am on Plasma), but I am also comfortable with the terminal. What are you all using?

    The default system monitor application that comes with KDE can do this. You will need to click the “edit page” button in the top left, and create a custom layout that shows all the sensors you want. Here is mine:

    You can display the data using pie charts, text, line charts, etc.

    Once you create your layout, you can even turn it into a widget that you can have on your desktop or drop into your taskbar.
