So recently games on my laptop have been slowing down after 2 to 10 minutes of play. My cpu is a Intel Core 2 duo which is pretty terrible but it can run some games ok with everything low. After reading several threads on these forums I'm fairly sure that this is because it is over heating, but I'm not really sure how high it has to get. I was playing dishonored and it runs pretty well considering until it slowed down pretty badly. On the image below from speedfan the purple line is where is started lagging
So, Is it an overheating problem and if so what should I do? I can see no other programs taking up a lot of cpu power and I have 8 gigs of ram of which 3 gigs is taken up at most. I have no virus protection enabled on start up but I do scan my disk and registries often and I've defragged my hard drive already.
