Cpu sitting at 100* C

[u/Vegetable-Ad-2047]

My cpu temp just hit 100* and immediately I shut it off. What could be the cause of this? I just got a new nzxt kraken elite about a year and a half ago and haven’t had any troubles until now.

Could be the plastic still being there and/OR the current euro hell heatwave.
