Must be something wrong with your cooler or thermal paste.. Maybe reapplying the thermal paste and the cooler will result in better contact, which will result in better thermals due to higher conductivity.

100C at idle indicates a CPU cooler not properly connected.

Take it off, clean and redo the thermal paste, reassemble.
