i9 12900k temp spikes

[Ziing]

Holla.. A week ago installed fresh build, with new z690 mobo and i9 12900k, CPU temps were 60 in games.. But suddenly temperatures started to spike between 60-80.. Like.. one moment it is 60, then 68, 75, 70, 81, 69 etc… Thought maybe it happens in one game, so tried another 2 games, same thing.. Any ideas? FPS are fine, no drops or something. Temps checked via MSI afterburner, core temp, and etc.. No overclocked parts. Tried reinstall windows - nothing. Tried reapply thermal paste - nothing. Actually noticed, that CPU usage also higher, spikes to 65%. Maybe CPU itself failing? Any knowlegde would be helpful! Cooler - corsair h150i elite capellix

80 is not that bad a temp for i9 and gaming
i9 are hot runners
