I use http://openhardwaremonitor.org/

It is still in development, but alreay working quite good!

The nice thing about it, is that if you use Windows 7, you can create a gadget for your sidebar that shows the things you want (you can pick what it has to display).

Very nice, and free!

So does Speedfan! Now that I think about it, though, I'm just confusing Speedfan and TPFC - I do like TPFC better. Since I got my heat issues sorted, though, I've stopped using it.

Notebook Hardware Control (NHC)
Unfortunately, the last official release doesn't support the newest chipsets, and the new version is 'ready when it's ready'...
