Try taking you fan off and see if there is a lot of dust between your fan and CPU.
My computer's fan kept making loud noises, speeding up, and slowing my system down a while back and when I took the fan off to look I swear I had like a centimeter of compacted dust sandwiched between the fan heat sink and the CPU. It is amazing how dust can build up like that.

...Starcraft though???

Is it when someone rushes you with 400 zerglings? or attacks with Carriers and interceptors? I just can't really see such an old game being that taxing on a modern computer. I had a few slowdowns with that game long ago when I played it, but they were mostly bandwidth/lag related.

Jam it back in, in the dark.
