3 people in my team have the exact same problem. you're not alone and ED seemingly doesn't care about addressing this problem of theirs.

Limit your fps with either vsync or an fps limiter (no point in running more than your monitor refresh). Also try disabling community content in the menu. Seems the mod integration is hard on cpu. High cpu usage leads me to believe you are running at a lower resolution. Try something higher and if you have an Nvidia card try DSR to 4k. The game isn't very gpu demanding so that should free some load off the cpu.

Check your cpu/aio fan curve also. You might have it set to silent causing it to stay at low rpm and overheat.

Seems odd you would be overheating with a water cooler. My 8300 with a stock cooler doesn't go above 60c with the game running at 60fps set to "sync all cores". I had a AIO a few years back and started seeing really high temps. Turns out the AIO was all full of gunk and losing performance. You could also check the thermal paste, maybe you applied too much or too little during install.

I did a quick google and it seems that cooler is a bit underspec for your cpu as it runs pretty hot especially if you have an overlcock set.
