I scanned it with malwarebytes just incase I had bitcoin worm on my computer, and it says I dont. So i am not really sure what is going on , because its not always like that, sometimes when i am watching movies it doesnt do that, but right now its doing it and all i am using it for is chrome.
Not really sure what it is. I am not ignorant in regards to computer science I built my own pc, so I am really bewildered here

Also, since it's been on for 10 hours and the medium is already heated and the cpu will react more quickly to load increases, it may be that although YOU think it is idle at that time another unknown system process may be kicking in like the defragmenter or another scheduled windows process that is only invoked during idle periods. So while you think it's idle the system may be going "Oh, we're idle now? Well, I have some other work I need to do while you're not doing anything, and then the load and the temps will shoot up. Open task manager by hitting control alt delete and check the running processes when it happens to see what is running and using resources at that time. Also check for any processes that have many copies of...

Don't ever dare to do such a thing. Either upload the .xml and paste the link here for us to see or copy to a pastebin and then paste the link here for us to see

Actually, what you're supposed to do is install HWinfo, open the program and make sure only the "sensors" box has a check mark next to it, scroll down in the sensors window to the relevant area where the readings you are interested in are showing (Or take multiple screen shots by snapping a shot of the upper, middle and bottom sections) and then post the screen shots to tinypic (http://tinypic.com/) or another image hosting service and then add the image to your post by clicking the picture icon (You need to click "post an answer" in order to see the toolbox, quick edit mode doesn't have it.) which will allow you to link to the picture you just posted on tinypic.

If you don't know how to take a screen shot for your version of windows, google it.

Is that at idle with nothing running? Can you hear your fan running at ALL? Go into the power options in control panel and click on change plan settings next to whatever plan you have selected. Then click on change advanced settings. Under processor power management set the processor minimum states for both plugged and unplugged to 5%. Set both on system cooling policy to active.

Set both on maximum processor state to 99%. Reboot and see how it does. Also, go into the BIOS and see if there are any fan settings. If so change it to always on or whatever is similar. If there is an option for turbo core in the bios, turn it off. I realize the faster speed is nice, but having a unit that works at all is faster than one that doesn't work at all because it burned up.

All the settings you said were already set. My laptop randomly goes chaotic mode, where fan is spinning like a damn helicopter, and yes its blowing hot air. Sometimes it just sits and quite but then all of a sudden the fan starts spinning

Yeah ok, but why does it do it though. Runs fine for 11 hours out of 12, but then that one hour in different time intervals such as sometimes it last 5 minutes, sometimes 10, but no more than 20 min, while nothing is running it goes nuts...

Temperature is a magnitude that measures internal energy within an object, more temperature means there's more energy and movement between molecules, therefore, your body can feel and tell if it's hot. Heat is the transfer of this energy, Q = Cem(/_\t). Bodies have to match their energy through a certain time varying their temperatures when on contact (see conduction, convection and radiation). There are factors that make the samples vary such as the medium and the nature of the bodies. Your GPU at 90c keeps its temperature instead of lowering to the medium's because it's constantly powered by AC power and electric energy, therefore, instead of balancing with 30c air/metal/plastic it balances with a hotter medium that is hot because the GPU made it hot in the past 10 hours

Also check for any processes that have many copies of themselves running as this could indicate an infection in some cases.
