G4560 reaches 95+ degree when gaming

When I play games on my PC my CPU temperature reaches 95+ degree but stays at about 40-50 degree when I'm not gaming. I don't know why it's happening and I'm thinking to buy a new processor because I think G4560 is bad CPU for gaming.

What else can cause this issue?

PC Specs :-
CPU- INTEL PENTIUM G4560 7TH GEN @3.50Ghz
RAM- 8GB (4GB DDR4 @2133Mhz + 4GB DDR4 @2400Mhz)
MOBO- GIGABYTE GA-B250-D3H
GPU- NVIDIA GTX 1060 6GB GDDR5 EX OC
STORAGE- 240GB SSD + 1TB HDD
PSU- CORSAIR VS550

The G4560 is a dual core, hardly putting out any heat. You've definitely got something wrong with the cooler. 

I WILL find your ITX build thread, and I WILL recommend the SIlverstone Sugo SG13B

Draws 400 watts under max load, for reference.

 

How many watts do I needATX 3.0 & PCIe 5.0 spec, PSU misconceptions, protections explainedgroup reg is bad

Cooler is more than likely faulty, but if you give us a photo of the system it could be easier to determine it... if you're using Stock Intel cooler on a fully closed box with terrible airflow with that open air GPU cooling solution this could greatly affect your thermals negatively... if to the point of this awful result though is a mystery.

Are you sure your cpu heatsink is mounted properly?

Yes, I'm pretty sure. I've already checked it and reapplied a good quality thermal paste.

It would help to know what your cooler is. Is it a stock cooler that came with the chip? I used to have a system with a G4560 and a GTX 1050, and under full load, the G4560 only climbed to 45-50 C with the Intel stock cooler. 

CPU- AMD Ryzen 5 2600

Cooler- Thermaltake Floe 240mm AIO Cooler

Motherboard- Gigabyte AORUS X470 Ultra Gaming

RAM- (2x4) 8GB Corsair Vengence 2400MHz DDR4

Storage- SanDisk 250GB SATA SSD

GPU- Gigabyte RX580 8GB

PSU- EVGA 500W 80+

Case- CoolerMaster MasterBox Lite 5 RGB

Ok, the only thing I could think of is just making sure that the cooler is installed correctly, and that thermal paste is applied. If you look at THIS link from Intel, the maximum temperature is 100 C.
