Some PC cases have filters built in which helps to prevent dust getting inside and if they become clogged, that'll contribute to any overheating. For the longevity of the components in your PC it's important that this issue be dealt with as a priority - sooner, rather than later. You didn't mention the actual (not example) make and model of your PC (this is actually a forum for Windows Tablets) but if its very new and still under warranty, it'd be worth liasing with the supplier/OEM first off.

 

If its not under warranty and you are fully conversant with the insides of PC's it'd be worth unplugging it from the mains and giving it clean out. You'll need to be careful to avoid Electro Static Discharge (ESD) which may damage sensitive components within so be skimpy with usage of vacuum cleaners and aerosol 'duster' cans. If this isn't your thing and you'd rather pay someone to do this job for you, your local PC repair shop should be happy to give the computer an internal clean while employing all the required ESD precautions.
