Open it up. Clean it. Dust it. Check your fans. Make sure you have a good intake/out-take flow.. If need be buy more fans... they are cheap.

If it's bleeping, then it's a problem with the RAM.

Beeping == RAM problems ? Not necessarily.

if it beeps, find your motherboard manual and check what the beeps mean. e.g. 2 short + 1 long could mean a RAM issue (that was just made up off the top of my head though :P)

If you dont have the motherboard manual, but you know the make of the BIOS then you can google the beep codes.

Or download Motherboard Monitor, but i suspect it will be a bad motherboard sensor.

Have you got the manual? Check out the beep codes.. If you want to do it manually then get in there, unplug everything (and i mean everything) plug it back in.. Then if its still beeping and you dont know what it is, try pulling out your RAM, then PCI cards etc till you find the problem.. and if you dont find it then its your mobo.
