Might be worth checking the various temperature sensor readings in the BIOS
after the PC's been running for 20mins or so.
We had some very hot weather last week and one of my PCs at home did almost
the same thing, opened it up and found one of the fans was jammed and the
heat sinks were clogged up with cat hair (don't ask ....)
