Usually you should be replacing it at least once a year but rarely people do till its too late. If limiting cores is helping with this, then that most likely means your cooling paste has dried up and it needs to be replaced. If you do not fix it soon you will fry your cpu. Your temps rising that fast to those specific temps means you have a severe cooling problem. Your problem is still there and I really hope you listen to this before its too late for you. You can also check the original solution at this post : Scroll all the way down and find the line SET MaxCoresToUse.4 "-1" (The number in quotes might be different for you), and change it to SET MaxCoresToUse.4 "2" (Simply change the number in quotes to 2, other numbers might work too but 2 was the one that worked for me and others). Open the file UserSettings.txt or UserSettings. Go to Documents\Elder Scrolls Online\live. Thanks to those who found it and pointing at it in this post, the solution (at least in my case and apparently many more) is very simple (Makes you think. Also thanks to username CaliphStudio for compiling the information found here: For reference I was instantly spiking from 55C to 90-100C, and now after implementing the solution below I am running at a nice 65-75C. OK so I just solved my CPU temperature problem after finding this solution below. MSI Afterburner shows literally in miliseconds from 45c to 85c that is clearly not normal? Is there somesort cache I need to remove? Something is wrong with this launcher update? Other games work fine, I already deleted the UserSettings from Documents folder so I can set my in game graphics again but that did not help, same result.

So I got a new update on launcher today, and now cannot play the game because my CPU freaks out magically jumpin to 85c, usage also jumps to %99.
