Ok. Updated the BIOS and indeed those measurements were way off (by 50 deg F!). So now I seem to idle at 87 and underload at 102. Yes I know this is bad, but how bad is it? And how am I gonna cool this thing?

While it seems like the problem is definitely heat, I'll say that the PSU's +12V is rated 14 amps.

Thanks for your help so far!
