@Daniel, I'd like to get some processor related settings from your machine to see what's going on. Can you do the following:
sudo add-apt-repository ppa:colin-king/powermanagement sudo apt-get update sudo apt-get install intel-thermdump sudo intel-thermdump > thermdump.log and attach the thermdump.log to this bug report.
