It sounds like its a thermal issue, I have a 125 and when the case gets about 140 it thermals. I think it is set to thermal at 170f but that is internal temp not case temp. If you search the subject there are a few threads on it but I think they are about the 125 not the 80 but they should apply to both.

Get a heatsink and fan on that thing. The motor too. If you can sizle water, you r gonna fry the motor sooner rather than later.
