you only have one fan?

All of the newer computers have more than one fan. The new hardware gets way too hot for just one. You can remedy this by buying a new case with at least 2-3 in it, or you can add fans, but if you have a case that only vents through the back, it won't help much. Also make sure the inside is dust free. You can buy canned air at Wal-Mart to blow out the dust.
