So i was just messing around in iCue after getting my new keyboard and noticed two temperature readings on my motherboard sitting at very high temperature for idle. At first i thought the sensors may be busted but the temperature increased from 87 to 89 degrees C. I seem to have very low cpu performance for my i5 7500 in games and it bottlenecks my gtx 970 in everything I play so maybe this is why? (nothing else evident seems to be causing it apart from simply lack of processing power) I am unsure what these temp numbers are for as cue gives no extra information.

CPU - i5 7500
Mobo - Gigabyte b250m-ds3h
GPU - MSI GTX 970 Gaming 4G
Ram - 8GB corsair LPX 2400, 8GB corsair lpx 2666
I am using stock cooler on my CPU and the case came with 3 fans installed, i am not well educated on which direction the fans should be blowing for optimal airflow.
Thank you for your time! (and merry christmas from the UK)
