You should cool it off. Make sure it's cold when you are using it. Also I would recommend that you use thermal paste on the CPU plates

Might of just been a glitch, but more likely early ylod.
Will get worse until you have to press the power button a few times to boot it up
Then you will get full ylod & will need to reflow or reball it.
