O.P. RE: Anybody good with RAM?
Thanks Mnjul! I just checked with SpeedFan and the temp does seem to be pretty high on GPU, Temp1 and Core. Running a stress test it raised to over 100 degrees and shut-off again.
Unfortunately, doing an inspection of the fan (which I noticed was the source of a noise I'd been hearing lately) ended up with it losing a couple of "fins" making it unbalanced. I can get one in the next couple of days for around £5.
I've managed to move the rear fan to the side by a vent and funnel thing so it directs air straight at the CPU and I managed to get a couple of 4 inch usb fans off of a laptop stand and plugged them into the motherboard for now.
I'll let you all know if the new fan(s?) fixes the problem
