Hey guys
I have the same problem. When I'm idling and surfing the web the graphics card rapidly heats up to around 90.C before the computer shuts down.
I have replaced the thermal paste and i will find out if that fixes anything
any help would be great

Add a fan to a spare back slot next to the graphics card and vent hot air to the outside, move box forward, remove dust from location.

These fans cost about £4 from CPC and Maplins or e-buyer.
