Just to give everyone an update on my situation:

It turned out I had a bad fan on the CPU, apparently the motor seized. I 
ordered a replacement and finally installed it earlier today. Everything
appears to be running fine even the CPU utilization goes up. I also
installed ports/sysutils/mbmon to monitor the voltage and fan RPMs. I 
must say, this is a very handy tool. 

Thanks to all for the help!
