What kind of probe? Usually you can put them wherever you like. There is no dedicated connector for monitoring on the board if that's what you mean.

most boards have on board sensors, so they kinda support it. but if you want to use your own probe, you're literally on your own, its just you the probe and some duct tape, probably = )

A temp probe to display component temps.

These are the default sensors: 

 

There are no spare probes you attach at will but you can get thermal probes yourself. Not very expensive, depends on what kind of displaying solution you need.

This may sound stupid, but is there any way to rearrange the sensors? For instance instead of displaying the CPU socket it displays GPU temps.

GPU temps would be up to your GPU, and effectively any modern GPU will report its temperature.

 

If you're looking to make a sensor display, J2C did a video about that a while ago:

if you use hwinfo64 theres a whole lot of sensors and stats, and yes you can rearrange them however you like. you can also show an on screen display if you install riva tuner statistics server... however it seems to only work for 3d applications,  a huge oversight by the developers.

what software did he use? a permanent sensor display would be nice (or rather an overlay if possible)  but as said above that doesn't seem to be an option with riva tuner...

He uses the AIDA64 SensorPanel in that video.
