My computer CPU overheats when playing any kind of game. Its like 4 and a half years old and Ive physically cleaned it and move wires around to try and improve ventilation, but to no avail. Will I have to get another CPU or a whole new computer? I could spend up too 900 dollars for one...I wish I could re-use my i7-core 3280 :( any suggestions or help?
