He has 3930K@4.3 Ghz... And to the topic, maybe windows is just installing some updates or something because that usually is under "system"

why is it on for so long? there could be unnecessary things running in the backround. you could run ccleaner and see if your windows installation is using too much space or something

How about a reboot? Does that fix it?

 

Yes, but only for a couple hours. This usually happens after 80 hours uptime.

ok, it seems like there aren't any useless files lying around, could you also check the registry? 

 

Check the registry for what?

That's because standard computer parts aren't meant to be on 24 hours a day,unless you're using a server/workstation motherboard, xeon processor, server/workstation grade HDD, etc. you shouldn't expect it to run flawlessly for days on end.
