iStat has a dashboard widget. Or you can go pro and get menu bar readings.

I use iStat in the menu bar

Worth the asking price IMHO.

Sorry, they used to have one. I've been using the menu bar so haven't noticed the lack of a dashboard widget.

I use iStat Pro (free) and iStat Menus ($16). A forum member has posted a copy of iStat Pro that has been "tweaked" to enhance compatibility with Mountain Lion and later. You can download it here.

Hi buddy , you could give Macs Fan Control a try.

You can adjust the fan speeds based on many parameters, and it also gives you many temp details.

I have attached an example of what you get when you click on it, normally the only thing you see is the temperature in the top bar by the wifi.
