I have an Ryzen 5 2600 OC to 3.8 @1.2v and underload i see temps reach about high 60+ degrees but i keep Core temp open while i play ac origins @1080p high and keep a steady 53-55 degrees but core temp reports spikes of up to 207 degrees Celsius but when i minimize to check it's already back down to 50. Any clue whats going on?
 
Solution
Those temperatures are most likely misreadings. A spike like that would cause the computer to shut down...
My suggestion would be to try another monitoring software like HWinfo.
