I literally had a technician in today who put a whole new cooler on it with new paste.

 

maybe, is it overclocked? what game is it?

As stated above, you may need to change thermal paste / reseat the cooler.

 

You might want to change the thermal paste out..... and see if you need to fill the pump again.

We need to know what kind of overclock and voltages you are running.

No overclock...?

Something is definitely wrong then.

 

What is an "unintensive game" be specific.

 

What are you ambient temps?

 

Need to make sure that the pump is running at 100%, and the fan is running at 60%+
