Hello,i recently bought a Intel Core 2 Quad q6600 @ 2.40 Ghz from amazon and installed it with the stock intel heatsink fan with thermal paste for the first week it worked awesome but after that there is a problem with the temperature where the individual core temperatures are very high even at startup reaching 95 c whereas the cpu temperature is at 74 c the games i play are extremely laggy and unplayable when this happens.but when i keep my pc and wifi off overnight it seems to work fine in the morning,can someone help me on this issue i have attached the open hardware monitor stats in the image https://imgur.com/a/GibdTKg
here are my specs

Nvidia GT 730 2 gb gddr5
intel core 2 quad q6600 @ 2.40 Ghz
4 gb ddr2 ram
Windows 7 64 bit

Thank You
 


the stock heatsink works great on my other cpu when i tested it
 


i put the thermal paste which was lying around my house i dont know about the company,my budget is too tight to get a new thermal paste,i opened the fan and found that the thermal paste is applied properly in the middle
