Hello. After I reset my computer a week ago, I've been having higher CPU temps than normal. Before resetting, I had 35 degrees idle and around 70 under load. Now I have 43 - 50 idle and 80+ under load, causing my PC to overheat and restart in games like PUBG. My CPU is an i7-6700 with a stock cooler. How do I fix this?

Because you did a reset windows might use higher resources then usual to finish installing updates and finalizing stuff. The colder a component longer it last so i think it is worth it to buy an aftermarket decent cooler.
