Hey guys, whats the best way to accurately measure the temperature of my cpu, mobo and inside case if possible?
 
motherboard monitor is a good software option. You can find some info on that here:

Hardware wise some baybus models have thermistors that you can place in the casse where you want. A big tip that some newbies really screw up on is placing a thermistor between the processor and heatsind in a computer. DO NOT DO THIS. You will either fry the processor from not making contact or you will crack it.
