As varsis says - the high Vcore could be an explanation. Nore likely though, is that the temps are monitored by the socket-probe which is notoriously unreliable. Buy a temp-probe with thermometer (senfu or other brand will do), and get it positioned next to the core. that way you will get much more precise readings.
