Usually the temperatures in the monitoring section of your BIOS is sufficient.

Try Speedfan for Windows.

realtemp or core temp seem to be the best program.

HOwever, you really can't fully trust these software readings.

If you got intel cpu, i think intel burn in testi s a nice one as well.

well the only way you can do it in BIOS is after rebooting which obvously isn't the best choice, but if you need to know the temperature in sertain conditions of the computer working try using SpeedFan - probably the most accurate among the freeware ones
