Hm, is your cpu fan spinning properly? and is it mounted down tightly and properly

 

[Faze_Infinity]

yes all fans are spinning properly and in place

 

[Faze_Infinity]

is it because is new i barely put thermal paste today using pea method

 

[Ethanh100]

That could be a problem. i suggest re applying, put a good ammount on there, a full sized pea should be good

Maybe your computer is updating on the background. Open task manager and check "processes form all users". List them by CPU usage and check if something is using too much of your CPU.
