I have a problem with weird CPU temperatures. In BIOS it reads 55 Celsius at 100% CPU load. In Windows, however, it can read 100 Celsius with throttling. I use programs like HWMonitor, Core Temp and Intel ETU. This can happen right after I've booted up the PC after it's been turned off for hours, or when I do a stress test with Intel ETU. Playing games also gives me temps around 90 Celsius.
This has started happening the last couple of days, and I don't know what to think. Is the BIOS correct? Or is Windows correct? When I get the high readings the PC does not blow warm air at all, and it is not warm to the touch. It does not smell weird or anything, either. Any ideas?
Some specs:
i7 4790
Gigabyte Z97X-Gaming 3
H80i GT
