I recently started having this problem where my PC will slow down after 10-15 minutes of use. This doesn't affect any of my , say , non-intensive activities like using photoshop or browsing the internet , etc.
But if I'm 3-D modelling or playing games I get a huuuge fps drop. For eg , in Call of duty 4 I usually get about 100+ fps easily , but after 10-15 mins it suddenly drops to 10-15 fps or even lesser. This happens with all my games and I even get lag when 3-D modelling.
Only if i restart the PC , then after booting back up it runs properly for another 10-15 minutes and the same problem.
Someone told me it may be due to overheating of the CPU , so here are my core temperatures during this slowed down state ( I'm not sure if these are considered as overheating ? ) -

I have 8GB DDR3 RAM
EDIT : These are the stats when my PC is in it's slowed don state WHILE playing a game ( call of duty 4 )
