First here is my PC specs:
CPU: AMD FX-8350
GPU: Radeon RX 580
RAM: 8gb (will be upgrading to 16gb on wednesday)
Fullscreen at 1920x1080

So basically, using HWMonitor Ill have it open while I play just to check things.
Normally the game runs fine on temps it'll get to about 60c and that's fine sometimes going over. But sometimes I will be playing the game and ill check my temps and it'll say that my max was anywhere from 190-230c and I have been trying to figure out when that happens, it seems to be only for a second or so, because my CPU isn't fried yet lol but I'm curious as to why it does this? should i try reseating my CPU? I'm also concerned. I will post picture when I can.

heres one example: (Value / Min / Max)

Sanity check that with A.N.Other program. HWInfo would be my recommendation. That'll give you a true indication of the temp spikes you're seeing.

Clearly 190-230'C is a misread. The system would shut down LOOONNNNGGG before you came anywhere close to those temps.

So regardless ive seen my package/core temps reach closer to 70c is that fine?
