I've used Ksensors in the past.  It's a front end for lm-sensors so you 
need to install that, too.  

Configuring lm-sensors is non-trivial in some cases. I recommend 
spending some time with the documentation before trying to set it up.  
Once you get lm-sensors configured, you can just use apt-get or any 
other package manager to install ksensors.
