Give the air vents at the base of the machine and the big round one behind the stand a good vacuum - no need to take the machine apart. My G5 had the same issue with random shutdowns, 'solved' by an hour or so of rest. After I vacuumed the vents it worked perfectly, fan noise decreased as did the temps.
