double check that the fan is seated correctly and screws are tight.

also, in the settings, you can change frequency & voltage to find a sweet spot cool enough to avoid overheating. repeated overheating will take its toll on the hardware.

appreciate this. any tips as far as tinkering with frequency & voltage to generate less heat? my left curve brain screams "less number make cooler"

Just downclock it, what's the room temperature?

probably like 65-70°F depending on the day. I will go browsing the internet on how to downclock it

You mean °C, right? It's very simple, just change frequency and/or core votlage to over or downclock it:
