I get regular overheats when gaming. I replaced the fan and paste recently and thought I had fixed it but out of the blue its started overheating again. Im pretty sure the temperature has always been at a relatively high level though and i've never really been sure why.

Heres my setup:
AMD Phenom II X4 955 Processor 3.20GHz
4.00GB RAM
AMD Radeon HD 6800 Series

Yup, that is a problem.
Do you have good airflow in the case? Lots of cool air drawn in the front and the hot air exhausted out the back? Get some case fans if necessary.
Painstakingly and carefully clean the fans and heat sinks that you have.
And consider upgrading your CPU cooling solution.
