We definitely need more information. Like, tons of it.
1-Specs! What are your parts?
2-What are your idle and load temperatures?
3-What part is overheating? The CPU?
4-Did you build this thing yourself, or is it commercial?
5-When does this happen?

Yes. Info, please! We cannot make bricks without clay!

Also, you don't just change the PSU before you know what's wrong. Hope you kept the old one, there may very well be nothing wrong with it! :/

The cheapest fix would be to replace the thermal paste with Arctic Silver thermal paste. You can get it for $5 on ebay and it will run much cooler. Many times thermal pastes gets old and needs replacing.
