For reference this is the PC:

Today I wanted to do a larger download. I chose not to limit ram usage (total usage ended up being circa 66% properly because I only have 16 gb).
Anyway, when it came to unpacking the file my cpu usage sometimes spiked up to 80-100% might have been 15 seconds total over the duration of 3 minutes.
I used Predetorsense to monitor the temperature and fan speed.
The temperature shown was around 70 degrees celsius but it sometimes spiked to 100 degrees right around when the cpu usage also spiked. Afterwards it would should 80-85, but it was not at all a steady growth og a steady decline in temperature.
The fans were not really blowing any harding than normally and they were set to auto so I assume if the temperature was even close to 100 degrees that the fans would blow much harder than that if there was a problem.
I now use 'Core Temp' which seems more reliable as well as showing the temperatures typically well under what Predatorsense shows.
Should I just continue using 'Core Temp'?
And also is it actually plausible that the CPU actually reached 100 degrees and I have in one way or another permanently crippled my PC????
Because the fans were really not picking up the pace. I have attached 2 .png showing the fan speed on auto and game. The fans were properly used 1,3 times more during the download that shown in the auto setting png.
