Hi,
I'm not especially tech savvy but I've been studying hard to try fix a lag problem on my comp. I discovered CPUID HWMonitor thanks to this site a few days ago and I realised that perhaps both my motherboard and CPU are overheating. From my forum research, I figure the motherboard may be a faulty reading so I thought I'd ask for help at this point. I installed CPUID, Speccy and speedfan to compare

So my motherboard is at 113C according to CPUID and Speedfan but Speccy has a more normal 28C. Also, CPUID "Min" value is 114C, surely the motherboard would heat up? So a faulty sensor? Do you know what causes this?
A side question if I could, my processor is hitting 100C sometimes (during gaming), at which point the core clocks drop to about 800MHz. Im guessing this is the source of my lag problem, as the CPU throttles to stop the processor melting?
Thanks for any help you can give me
