    Is the fan on the PSU still running after you shut down? If not then theres the key to the heat problem. Either way, you need to replace it altogether since it should be shutting down anyway.

    I find it unlikely that the MOBO would have anything to do with the PSU problem your having. does the problem continue if you unplug the unit for a time and then plug it in again?
