In short, I am having conky run the nvidia-smi command, and parse that output for what I need. Most of my conky script was copied from someone else's script, modified to work for me.
**Note: My process is no way efficient, but it gets what I need done. I know my parsing could be improved upon, but I not that skilled on that.
