Check the cpu usage with task manager to make sure it is not working hard for some reason.
If you cannot find SiSoft Sandra try any other reputable monitor such as coretemp hwmonitor, speedfan.
If the CPU (or GPU, or even HDD actually) are hot for no obvious reason then it may be due to dust around the cooler or something else obstructing the vents which needs to be cleared out.
If you have allowed to the machine to overheat (e.g. using with inadequate ventilation) then the thermal paste may have suffered and may need replacing.
