From the  January, 2, 2012 "Notebook Check":

 

The high temperature development is one of the Aspire 5755G's biggest shortcomings. The components get extremely warm during full load (Furmark + Prime). If we believe CPUID Hardware Monitor, the graphics card and processor heat up to over 90°C. This explains why the Intel quad core temporarily clocks down to 800 - 1600 MHz. 3D applications don't load the hardware as much and consequently throttling isn't an issue.

Even the case's surface is anything but cool during load. We rarely measure a maximum of 49°C on the top and up to 58°C on the bottom. But all clear: The 15 inch device doesn't get excessively hot during gaming. The temperatures are completely all right when not much is demanded from the notebook.

 

 

Having said that, your quad-core monster is supposed to have 8 gigs of RAM, and if it doesn't you need to check your manual to see if a chip hasn't failed. It's going to generate a lot of heat, and it sounds like your fan has either worn out or become clogged. It won't cost that much to take it to a repair shop. I also advise you to purchase a cooling fan to be placed under your rig. It's a well-built, rugged machine that should last you for years if you get this heat isue corrected.

 

There's a small chance that your integrated (built-in) video card has failed, so you are using your dedicated card for simple tasks.
