Weird things do happen to people, who owns a 256 tb SSD!!!

 

On a more serious note, your temperature sensor might be cranky... which utility did you use to monitor temps?

I have seen the TJ-Max of AMD CPU's fluctuate, usually changing every time I restart my computer.

 

I have noted this behavior on both the fx4100 and fx8350. I just keep the CPU pretty cool and it does not give me grief.

oh, what MOBO do you use?

 

I use the MSI 970a-g46 and have seen this. A buddy of mine uses the 970a-g43 and he has reported it as well.

Maybe a sensor is broken. On my cpu it says the temp is -340C in cpuZ

AMD sensors are never accurate. The best I've found are AMD Overdrive.
