That temperature is definitely too high for a cpu running with little load.
Yep, too high. If it weren't a modern CPU, it might have fried until now. You're lucky it has that throttle feature. You need to take out the CPU cooler, see what's up underneath, eventually get some of that thermo-conductive goo and put some on the CPU. Not much is needed, it only has to fill the very thin space between the metal capsule of the CPU and the surface on the bottom of the cooler.
