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?

    Have you tried creating a custom page with the plasma system monitor?

    plasma-systemmonitor
    

    You can create a new page to monitor all your temps, then add rows for each sensor you want to monitor, select the chart type or text and then select the sensor itself.

    I’m sure there are plenty of guides on how to set it up to get what you want.
