Still a little warm, but much better. Keep your eye on it for a while and see how it does under various loads.

Do you see any other chassis fan connectors on the motherboard? If there are any, try connecting that fan to one. It may be that the fan is going bad and is not able to spin once the system turns its speed down after start up.

Run a scan or watch a video. Work it a little and see what it does.
