If anyone cares, it ended up that the plastic that holds the heatsink on was cracked and the heatsink was able to fall partially of the CPU, hence it over heating. Once the case was opened, the green shroud swung open and the heatsink fell right to the bottom along with the broken plastic pieces.

Oh well. It was time for a new one anyway. And with that said, I got the parts in from Newegg yesterday and built it in a personal record time (about an hour and a half). For the $700 I spent on it, it is giving my $3000 rig a run for it's money :-(. Time to upgrade!
