The most likely thing to happen is that there not a good airflow in your case. The heat produced by the CPU and GPU stays in the case. There's not enough fresh air coming from the outside and the heat keeps accumulating and causing an overheat.

Try running your PC with the side panel open. If it does get better, you should improve the airflow or get a better case. Tie the unused wires together, remove the dust, add some case fans and it should improve the overall airflow.
