Issues with getting GPU sensors to work.

I have an Intel Core i7 6800K (no integrated graphics) and a GTX 1080 which I use for graphics. When using system monitor I noticed that I can't read any data from the gpu sensors, I mainly have gpu temp and usage and they are both at zero.

After using the command

sudo sensors-detect

I get:

Re: Issues with getting GPU sensors to work.

You aren't going to get nvidia sensor output with the normal sensors command as nouveau support is lacking and nvidia is not implementing that same interface. Use nvidia-smi for nvidia sensor information.
