My first guess is that you're heatsink is not seated properly and/or
does not have any thermal compound between it and the processor.

Any chance this is a Dell? I've seen this happen when the caps start
leaking on the motherboard (Nichicon parts.)

The capacitors next to your CPU probably have a light brown substance
on top of them indicating its time for a new motherboard.
