KDE KSysGuard NVIDIA GPU temperature/memory/utilization sensor, based on @frantic1048's script, but with units and total memory detection.
#!/usr/bin/perl -w
# act as a KSysGuard sensor
# provides NVIDIA GPU info via `nvidia-settings`
# Usage (e.g. add gpu temperature sensor)
# 1. save this file, make sure it has a exec permission
# 2. in KSysGuard's menu, open `File` -> `Monitor Remote Machine`
# 3.1 in new dialog, type `Host` whatever you want
# 3.2 set `Connection Type` to `Custom command`
# 3.3 set `Command` like `path/to/this-sensor.pl`
# 4. click `OK`, now you can find new sensor named `gpu_temp`
# which is provides GPU temperature

I ported your script to Bash, extended it and significantly lowered its CPU footprint:
