That's a laptop. ASUS Laptop G Series G73SW.

Download "hwmonitor" from CPUID (google it, free) to see your temps. Or just listen for very loud fan noise. Your guess of high temps is a very reasonable guess. Report your temps here for both CPU and GPU.

Laptops do get a lot of dust into the CPU/GPU heatsink. You clean it out by blowing into the fan with a can of compressed air. You get the can of compressed air for $7 or so at staples or amazon. You should blow the dust out whether your temps are high or not.

Old drivers and incompatible drivers are another cause of problems. If you have not updated your drivers in a while head to nvidia and pick up the most recent driver for your GTX 460M. Alternatively head to ASUS and pick up an older driver for your laptop that has been tested by ASUS to work on your latop.

good luck.
