Its possible that when you took it apart you didn't use the heat transfer "glue" between the metal heat exchanger and the CPU. The fan does need to be blowing toward the heat exchanger too and I assume you removed the dust from the exchanger. Did all that? There is usually at least one more fan in the power supply and sometimes a second one in front. Look at them too.

Can a hen overheat her eggs?

No, the eggs and the hen kind of go hand in hand. A chickens body temperature is 101-102ºF. That happens to also be the temperature that the eggs need to incubate at. Since the chicken cannot warm the eggs to a higher temperature than she is, the hen herself cannot overheat the eggs.
