P.S.: latest conky seems to have adapted its language a bit (probably caused by lua5.4). If you experience problems, you can convert the conkyrcs to the new language with this: https://github.com/brndnmtthws/conky/issues/991#issuecomment-670769356
command is then ./convert_lua .conkyrc in your $HOMEDIR
Conky is a tool from the old days, prolly more than 15 years old. It's not so popular no more, yet back then everyone had it. :)
You have to install it via your package manager and set it to autostart. The Command is just 'conky' from the console. With 'conky %F' you can give it a try after the installation. The configuration file is named .conkyrc and located in the $HOME directory, as a hidden file.
If you update the .conkyrc file and save it, the running conky output will update immediantly.
Some conky commands can be found here: http://conky.sourceforge.net/variables.html
My AMD conky is here: https://gist.github.com/ntropy83/25f0593ddc6e7f0aa07337b036c25cf1
And this is for the intel/nvidia: https://gist.github.com/ntropy83/dc4320e1fd0e896b27774038de01f729
Have fun modding :).
