Q: Random freeze after big CPU load

Hi

I've got an early 2011 macbook, and experiencing random freezes after a big CPU load : for exemple, almost every time I unzip something but never when surfing.

 

First thought it was a temperature issue, cause when I restart, my CPU's are at 100°C for minutes.

Successfully changed thermal paste (lost 6°C  in idle)


But when I freeze, I'm only at 60°C and the 100°C seems wrong (cold unibody).

 

So, looks like my CPU's dying ? Any ideas ?

 

Thanks for reading.

MacBook Pro (13-inch Early 2011), OS X El Capitan (10.11.2)
