Only a heating problem? If your PC is overheating then it's a serious problem, as heat can rapidly damage your hardware. Causes of overheating are many, ranging from broken fans, underpowered Power supply, blocked vents, excessive dust, underpowered computer for the process (game), etc. It's not good to use a PC in situations where the graphics chip overheats to the point of failing. You should fix the problem, or get higher powered hardware, whichever is applicable.
It actually was only a heating problem. I was just playing too long and I was playing it on my lap (using my laptop)!! I know that was stupid. Good thing I got the blurry screen before it melted my motherboard. Now I play a while then rest and ONLY play on a solid surface. I haven't had any problems since. But it could also be another problem, so make sure you check Simsample's suggestions.

The blurring is a sign that damage has occurred, not that damage will occur.

I know that. I was just thankful it had minor issues and I realized it before my motherboard melted. I didn't get anything fixed because nothing got damaged (At least I don't think so) I checked my hardware and it was all fine. I'm careful when I play now and haven't had a problem yet.

Heat causes wear, so shortening the life of components. Not good.
I have one of those dinner trays with a beanbag thing underneath it to rest the laptop on my lap with. You could also use a vacuum to get dust out of the vents.
