CPU temp fluctuating non stop( NEED HELP!)

Anyone have any idea why my cpu temp would all of a sudden start fluctuating like this ? I thought maybe my overclock settings( seems off due to the fact it's been the same for weeks with zero issues) so I dropped it back to stock and still it's like this. Also it seems to want to stay at core speed and core voltage even tho I'm set on balance mode. *NOTE* when I place power settings into power savings usage spikes to 60-70% this all started after play session. Never happened before. And both gpu temps are fine the system is on a custom loop and all 3 are tied into each other so I would see both gpus spiking if the system was over heating. Any ideas would be great

How come it would all of a sudden start to do this ? Even at idle it wants to give near full voltage and keep it at 4.0 or 4.6ghz? (Depending on clock speed profile)

This is actually pretty normal for CPUs to spike in temp, especially when overclocked. The effect becomes more noticeable as the core voltage goes up. As long as it is not hitting the high 80s it is perfectly fine.
