My desktop PC is overheating and shutting off by itself. I can even smell it when it overheats. I ran speedfan 4.52 and it shows AUXTIN1 and AUXTIN3 with fires next to them. Does that mean that my power supply is overheating and needs to be replaced?

The AUX temperatures are sensors that are not plugged in and could be a combination of all the system temps. Since most burning smells come from the PSU, replacing the PSU should fix the problem. Make sure you get a decent PSU though.
