Sounds as if the CPU is overheating.

Is the heatsink oriented properly and clipped down securely?

Is the attached fan plugged into the CPU_FAN header on the motherboard
(look carefully as CPU_FAN is often very close to a case fan header)?

Do you have thermal compound applied correctly? It's good practice to
remove and replace the TIM completely each time the heatsink id removed
or reseated.
