Have the system do something intensive and see how much the temps climb. Let it work for a few minutes and see - that will tell you if your system is thermal throttling or not.
Hello! Some info about me is up on my website: https://wreckedcarzz.com/

Yeah, that all looks okay. Did you put the system under heavy load while checking/monitoring?

Thermal throttling is when the system (usually the cpu) becomes so hot from the lack of cooling provided to it, that it limits its performance to save itself from certain death - going so far as performing a hard shutdown if the situation doesn’t improve or stabilize. AMD chips usually throttle at 80C, Intel chips 100C, but it could be a few different components. You need to run software that can properly read and report the temperature of various parts in your system to see if you might be hitting the throttling threshold.
I know software to do this for windows, but not any for *nix.
