Yeah, I would check that. Have you overclocked the chip?

Yeah, I would suggest you look for something at the cooler, like you said, thermal paste.

Check temps with other apps too, might be a bug. Check with HW Monitor

What's your voltage set at in BIOS? Auto?
Also, I would restore all default settings in BIOS if you have made any changes, after cleaning CPU.

Main:  1650 v2   @ 4,6GHz   -   X79 Deluxe                -   GTX 1080 @ 2000MHz   -   24GB DDR3 @ 2400MHz / CL10

Side:   i7-4790K @ 4,5GHz   -   Maximus 7 Hero        -   GTX 1070 @ 2114MHz    -  16GB DDR3 @ 2666MHz / CL12
