Most good and thoughtful motherboard manufacturers also provide some type of hardware monitoring utility on the install cd or have one available for download on their support sites. If you don't want to bother with that, you could always boot into your BIOS as most of them supply some hardware monitoring features for temps, voltages and fan speeds.

You could also stick a thermometer inside the case...

Motherboard monitor works great and is more accurate than most software that
comes with a motherboard. I highly recommend it.
