Need recommendation on software for monitoring CPU temperature.

Oxymoron

As per my rig (see signature below), I am in need of monitoring CPU core temperature but do not know what software I should use.

 

Isses with the following software have prompted me to look elsewhere:

1. Asus AI Suite III - very hard to unintsall and does not always demonstrate enough usability.  Had to uninstall it and go directly to the UEFI bios to overclock.

2. Corsair Link 4 - reporting "CPU Package" temperature to be consistently HIGHER than the average of all cores' temperature and gotten no where with Corsair tech support.

 

That said, I am running at 4.6GHz at 1.3V - I think.

 

My rig:

ASUS X99-A/USB 3.1 ATX LGA2011-3 X99 DDR4 SLI 4XPCI-E16 2XPCI-E1 SATA3 USB3.1 Motherboard
Intel Core I7-5930K 3.70GHZ Six Core 15MB Hyperthreading LGA2011-V3 Processor
