http://Sometimes, my PC will be fine. I can play games and talk to friends in a Skype call with no issues but some days I can't even open up Google Chrome without the my sound studdering for like 10 seconds to be followed up by my computer restarting itself. It has been very annoying lately. I've cleaned my computer twice but it only runs quietly for about 1 minute until it sounds like a large fan on high.

I would love to get help with this quickly and thanks ahead of time.

Solution
Your entire system is roasting. I didn't know it was possible for a G210 to get remotely that hot! Do you have any airflow going through your case? Also double check that all four push pins on your intel heatsink are locked in place, it isn't an uncommon issue.

They're locked in place. The thing is, this was quite random. My PC would never overheat.
