Hi there!
I have a i7 3770k with a Corsair H80i cooler and I've had this problem about a month now and my idle temperatures (and in games) are really high atm they're at 53 - 55c on idle and the room temperature is 20 - 21c ish.
And in games (i tried Counter-Strike: global offensive just now) and in that the temperature reaches 80c and the CPU usage goes up to 50% which it usually is in a game like Battlefield 4 which is more understandable. This is really worrying me, since it has never been like this and CSGO isn't that heavy of a game, now this has just gotten more and more worse since it all started. By the way yesterday i even tried taking out the radiator and cleaned it with some compressed air and there was alot of dust in there and i also cleaned the heatsink and cpu with isopropyl alcohol and reapplied with fresh arctic silver thermal paste (put a peanut amount in the middle) The temps are EXACTLY the same. No changes at all! now my computer is way quieter than before since the dust is now gone but the temps are still way to high so i can't play any games or nothing. Even when i just browse through google chrome or anything the temperatures goes up to 65 - 70c+ just by that and same here the CPU usage goes up insanely high (about 15 - 30% ish). Now do any of you guys know what's the problem here? Sorry for the really long topic but hopefully some of guys have the time and will to read / have a fix for this i'll gladly appreciate it!
Thanks in advance!
Here's some pictures btw of my CPU temps when doing nothing at all:

The second picture is when i open google chrome tabs they rise about 5 - 10c for a few secs then go down.
EDIT: Also sometimes, but just sometimes when i start my computer the temps are at 30 - 35c with 20c room temp. (Which still isn't normal to me since i've always had 25 - 30c even with my CPU on overclock (4.3GHz).
Here's a picture of me checking the performance of the CPU on windows! is this normal?
