I am wondering if there's something else I can do and I am quite desperate because this is the only game I have such problem with. I probably should tamper with the bios settings, something to increase the temperature safety switch-off threshold but I am not sure of where or what to do.

Maybe there's something I can do about the Video card settings (Nvidia Gforce 8800 GTS). Anyone else reported this problem with SH5? Is there a solution you or anyone else knows of?
Try to get the latest updates for your card and keep the in-game shadows settings to a minimum. This since Shadows consume framerates.

I have the same card as you and haven´t discovered any problem except from some minor lagging inside the sub (exceptionally in the commanding room).
