Ok... Hi again. After month of gaming something happened. All of the suden i have high temps 68-70 °C with no usage at all. Also 100% cpu usage. Is my cpu dead? Also in bios it shows temp of 43 °C but on every program on windows 68°C?? I tried to downclock on 2.53. Also cpu vent speed at max.
 
check your cooler.is it seated properly?is this the stock cooler and did you reapply heatsink compound recently?if this came on suddenly i would reseat the cooler and reapply the paste.if this is a stock cooler,get a better one.

In task manager idle.exe is always on 100% usage and everything else is on 0. Maybe its some windows glitch because i have cracked windows. Also i bought new cooler and it worked just fine until yesterday. In games i have lower fps, stuttering and freezes.
edit: Guys it turned out i had a virus. Sorry for bothering and thanks for the response.

Honestly they do not go hand in hand, that's Microsoft propaganda. Nevertheless, we won't really help with pirated software. Against forum rules. Glad you found out tho.
 
A very late reply but I had the same problems on bios version f8d. In Gigabyte's website it's stated that this bios version is just beta (for a lot of years now). Going to version f7 solved everything for me. It's not the cracked windows. I'm also using one.
