Default WAY too much oil pressure PLZ HELP!!

My car would normally run around 85. now out of the blue it shoots to well over 100, at dle. Ive already changed gauges. i was told it might be the oil pressure relief valve, but i would like a second opinion! thanks for any help put forth!

i myself block the pressure valve : o )but they might be right cause when i block them it runs about 85-95 but you could also have a something wrong with oilfilter or passage
