AMD FX 6300 "reaches" 206 c°/402.8 °F

Touch the heatsink when the software says it runs at 206c - if that's how it really it, you'd burn your finger and your skin will be left on the metal, you can't physically keep your finger on a metal so hot.
Standard stuff applies... remove your cpu cooler, apply thermal paste, screw down the cpu cooler, make sure it's got decent pressure on the cpu ...
A basic heatsink and a fan (and if the fan doesn't spin, just put a case fan to blow in the direction of the cpu cooler) will keep that fx-6300 below 80c no matter what.
also any component doesn't just snap from one temperature to another , you don't go from 68c to 206c in an instant, there's some thermal mass (the heatsink of your cpu cooler) that acts like a sponge, absorbing some heat, it takes time to go up in temperature and go down, it's not sudden. that alone is an indicator that it's software error.
