Just incase... Every time you take off the heatsink, you need to completely clean off the thermal paste and reapply it. Otherwise air bubbles form.
What heatsink are you using? Stock intel, or after market heatsink?
If this has only happened recently, how were you using your computer before? Any overclocking? Any particularly demanding games?
Have you cleaned out as much of the dust as possible? Not just from fans and heatsinks, but also from the capacitors in the motherboard?
Also, does your case have enough ventilation?
