80 celcius..
Definately overheating.
Are you sure your heatsink is TOUCHING the cpu?
If it is, try getting a new cooler / fan.

Clean inside the computer, What caused my computer to restart before was that the fan inbuilt to the graphic card burned up...

In order of what you should do first:
1. Clean out the CPU fan and the other fans.
2. Re-seat the CPU fan.
3. Run the computer open-cased.
4. Get a new CPU fan.
5. Get new system fans to help air circulation.

Try to have a house-fan and see how it works. If it still fucks your computer up, it got to be something else
