I use coretemp.
Shows the average of my dualcore. Just sits in the tray. Low mem+cpu usage also.

It's a laptop.
It runs at about 75-79 when gaming, sometimes a bit higher when playing Crysis.

TJmax is the thermal junction maximum = distance to intel's maximum safe temperature which is usually around 100C for intel core products.
