Hi rychuu,
You can download HWMonitor, (just Google it). The free version will give you the basic temperature information you are looking for. Speedfan is also good. Ther is another program that I learned about recently called RealTemp. I haven't tried it yet, (busy with other things), but I am planning to soon. If you try RealTemp, could you post up how you find it?
Thanks
zog
Edit: Just tried RealTemp, seems basic but nice. Temps are within a degree c of what HWMonitor is showing.

A Thinkpad-specific thermal monitoring and management program exists.
It's called Thinkpad Fan Control, and is available here:

Version 0.62 is the compatible with X60 series:

Also, which part at the bottom is hot?
