This may be a silly question, but what are you measuring?  If it is the 
local room temperature, you have several sensors on most motherboards, 
and one or two will be pulling room temperature - e.g. most disks are 
mounted in the room-temperature airstream.  If this is on a server, then 
every one that I have also has an intake temperature sensor to control 
fan speed.

Of course, this will not work if you're trying to  measure the oven or 
outside temperature for instance.
