After having it running for over a month I now am having an overheating issue with both me CPU and GPU. When I run speedfan it shows both the card and CPU heading north of 60 degrees Celsius. I am at a loss for both components overheating and any help would be greatly appreciated. Thanks!

So I ran it again under load for 15 minutes or so and it didn't exceed 70 degrees on the video card. its weird because I was getting the flickering black screen like it was overheating. I wonder if there is a problem with the video card.My case is below. it's an older version of this.
