SUMMARY Please, add support for monitoring Nvidia GPU temperatures through nvidia-smi utility. The utility provides a lot of useful information about the GPU state, temps would be one example of data to extract.

This support appears to already exist in System Monitor. Steps to utilize: 1.) Open Plasma System Monitor 2.) "Edit Page" (top right) 3.) "Add row" or click blue area --> "Add Column" --> Click blue area to add a widget 4.) Click "Total Sensors" or "Sensors" 5.) Click nvidia gpu (probably GPU 0 or 1) 6.) Choose "Temperature" or other desired sensor/stat Please let me know if this isn't working for you KDE Plasma 5.24.5 Frameworks 5.94

Though it is located in an unexpected place - all other sensors are in the Hardware Sensors category, which is where I was looking. Is it possible to move the sensors in one place?

Is it possible to > move the sensors in one place? I see what you mean. "Hardware Sensors" is really like the "other" section. That could be a possible feature change, as it is a little confusing.
