Yes.

Why not fix the problem rather than mask it with a temporary bandaid?

Take the cover off until you fix the problem.

Maybe even put a fan blowing on it.

i'm guessing it would only be a few days a year. i suppose i could underclock but that's like a humiliating defeat

Kill Ben.
Sell his body to a medical researcher and use the money to upgrade your HSF and case cooling.

And lose the modem.
