I would recommend installing a cooling system as efficient as mplayer. 
Possibly some arctic silver gel and a delta fan on a nice
copper/aluminum heat-sink.  Also make sure you have plenty of fresh air
circulating through your case. A nice fan or two sucking in the front
coupled with the psu fan and an extra case fan blowing out the back
really helps.
