    open it up and give it a good clean. get all of the dust out and maybe replace the fan. it souldnt cost you alot, but its risky opening it up if you dont know how. if you dont want to open it up yourself, bring it to a computer shop. 50$ or less for a good clean.

    I thought I had fan problems when my GPU's hit 105 after only a few months of usage, HOWEVER, a thourough cleaing with a vacuum, compressor, and more vacuuming dropped the temsp 30deg idle and loaded.
