4 cores, 8 threads. 

As others are pointing out, this could be thermal. Clean the
fan, consider replacing the power supply, consider removing the
heatsink and cleaning it then re-applying thermal paste.

If the problem recurs and it isn't thermal, you can replace the
CPU.

i7-5775C or another i7-4790S will go for about $200; a used
i7-4770K will be nearly unnoticeably faster for about $180.
