10 bucks at frozen cpu. The only problem with a temp probe is that they can (obviously) only be placed on the IHS, which is a lower temperature than the core.

If you undervolt, underclock your cpu, temp at IHS should be within 1C of core temps. See post 57 and read links.

The IHS temperature.

Estimating IHS from a diode abutting or underneath the cpu socket, that needs to be calibrated, can be done using internal case ambients at stock settings and idle, and then hoping your bios makes it scale correctly, and then hoping it does not lose its contact or suffer to much from electrical/software interpretation error.
