Windows 10 Shutdown and Temperature Issues

[PurpleChakra]

Since a couple months back, my system has been unusable due to it blacking out a few minutes after I boot into Windows 10. This has happened with both Home and Home N. 

A bit of background: When trying to install Windows, the system blacked out upon restart, in the 'Setting up devices' loading before login. When I installed Windows using my friend's computer, it started blacking out a minute or two after login. I have experienced occasional complete system shutdown in the past, but with nowhere approaching this frequency.

My CPU always and without fail reads exactly 80 degrees C, even immediately after boot from a two week holiday. This is present both in the BIOS and in temperature checkers in Windows.

Everything except my motherboard and CPU have been tested and are working.

 

Specs:

CPU - AMD fx-8350 8-core at 4Ghz (stock)

CPU Cooler - Seidon 120V Plus. The pump and fan seem to be working.

GPU - MSI GTX 970, stock

RAM - 2x4GB HyperX 1600 Mhz

Mobo - Gigabyte GA-970A-D3P (rev. 1.0), BIOS version F3 (this is the original BIOS and I have not flashed it)

Storage - Samsung 850 Evo 120 GB SSD

PSU - Thermaltake 550W 80+ Bronze

 

I am at my wit's end. What do I need to replace, fix or do something to?

80C is way too hot for an fx-8350 especially at stock and idle, have you tried replacing the thermal compound?

Was the system fine before Windows 10 was running on it?

The CPU always reads 80 degrees. It does not increase or decrease, not even by a single decimal point. Even 10 seconds after boot to BIOS, it reads 80, and after idling in the bios for 10 minutes or so the case, AIO pump and radiator do not feel close to 80 degrees. I'm wondering whether something is wrong with my temp sensor, and if the temperature reading is causing the system shut down.

It didn't experience blackouts immediately after login, but instead would blue-screen after login

Windows 10 seems to be an improvement, albeit a minor one.

Can I bump threads? I'm going to try.

[PurpleChakra]

Bump. Still not resolved.

Bump for halp

Bump - If someone can answer with what to replace or fix (CPU/Mobo), that would be great.
