Can you post your config?  It's easier to see what you have going on.

Actually, here's the top portion of my config, which works nicely on Arch under Gnome.  What you need is probably in there.

default_outline_color white
default_shade_color white
double_buffer yes
draw_borders no

gap_y 15 
maximum_width 330
max_port_monitor_connections 64
max_specials 512
max_user_text 16384
minimum_size 330 300
net_avg_samples 2
no_buffers yes
out_to_console no
wm_class_name Conky
own_window_colour black
own_window_hints undecorated,below,sticky,skip_taskbar,skip_pager

Re: [Solved] Help with Conky

I'm so blind.  You did post most of your config.

What you need is probably in this area:

wm_class_name Conky
own_window_colour black
own_window_hints undecorated,below,sticky,skip_taskbar,skip_pager
own_window_transparent yes
own_window_type conky
own_window yes
own_window_argb_visual yes
own_window_argb_value 255
