Why is my FX 8350 overheating

[mcfatpole]

Specs:
CPU- Amd fx 8350
CPU cooler- amd wraith max cooler
GPU-GTX 1060 3gb
PSU- corsair vs 450
Motherboard- Gigabyte GA-970A-DS3P FX rev 2.1
RAM- 8gb 1600mhz ddr3
Recently i was doing some cable management in order to make my pc look nicer on the inside and to also maximise airflow. I never had a problem like this before but when I put my pc back together the temperatures reached 80 degrees celcius when playing cs:go and i started
to lose alot of fps ,I have good airflow on my pc . I have disabled turbo mode and have increased all my fan to run faster, my CPU fan is running at roughly 2800 RPM , the pc keeps on throttling and i dont know what to do in order to not damage my system. Do you guys know what to do ?

Thanks for the help

I think there's a good chance the cooler got knocked or something like that and it's not seated properly.

I would check into this.

...and if it did get knocked out of wack I would probably redo the thermal paste.

What is your idle temperature?
I would expect 10-15c over ambient.
Perhaps a bit more for a fx.

If the temps are significantly higher, it is time to remount the cooler or buy a better one.

THIS would be my best guess... if the CPU cooler is not seated properly there's poor contact between the CPU heat spreader and the CPU cooler.

It may not be obvious but I'd redo the CPU cooler so you'll need of course thermal paste, and 90% or so isopropyl alcohol to clean first.

Ok i will try and get some thermal paste for tomorrow and see if that will help, will this be suitable? https://www.amazon.co.uk/MX-2-Compound-Performance-Heatsink-Interface/dp/B004D3TUG0/ref=sr_1_1_sspa?ie=UTF8&qid=1532445971&sr=8-1-spons&keywords=thermal+paste&psc=1

On AMD overdrive it shows that it is roughly 25 degrees celcius below the max temperature . But when i start using chrome or even load up a game it goes up to 5-9 degrees over the max temperature. I think that the cooler is good as it never caused problems before but I checked and i did rub a little bit of thermal paste off when cleaning my CPU cooler. Thanks anyway

That should work fine.
