Default Re: AMD Athlon X2 5200 OVERHEATING in half hour of gameplay

Recently I had this problem. I just opened the case and applied some heatsink compound to the processor and it seems to be fine. Of course I also cleaned out my PC with a vacuum cleaner blowing air out. It falls within reasonable temperatures now
