Introduction
I've been seeing loads of complaints about the High CPU usage causing high temperatures.

So, I figured I'd try and help out.

This is how I fixed my issue, undervolting my PC.

DISCLAIMER 1 - THIS METHOD WORKED FOR ME. HOWEVER, INCORRECT USAGE OF LISTED TOOLS MAY DAMAGE YOUR PC. USE AT YOUR OWN EXPENSE. I WILL TAKE NO RESPONSIBILITY OVER ANY DAMAGES.

DISCLAIMER 2 - From personal experience, undevolting does not cripple ingame performance e.g FPS, Graphics, etc....

With that out of the way, here are the tools I used.
I recommend you use either Throttle Stop or Intel XTU to acheive this.

Here are the links:

Tips
Personal experience:

I found Throttle Stop to be slightly more effective, all I had to do was tick both the 'Disable turbo' and 'Speed Stop' options and click the turn on button.
However, XTU also helped significantly.

Tips:

From personal experience I recommend you either use XTU OR Throttle Stop at a given time. I have found that if I used both at the same time, my PC would crash due to lack of electricity supplied.

I also recommend you set your fan speed somwhere between 60% - 100% depending on your cooling systems power.
Conclusion
Conclusion:

I hope my guide allowed you to enjoy AC Origins for what it is without frying your PC. Thanks for reading.

Apologies for my crappy formatting, this is my first ever guide.

Special Thanks to Aura for teaching me how to undervolt.

Or you could just open up your PC, give it a lot of cleaning, clean the radiators, fans, and reapply the thermal paste. Pretty simple.
