If the caliper isnt freely moving well this can happen. The slide pins get gummed up (if that caliper has them) and it doesnt release properly. Common on GM vehicles as well
They need to be cleaned and lubed. You should use sil-glyde lube as well, as other types of lubes tend to cause the rubber boots that seal the pins to rot or get eaten. https://www.amazon.com/Napa-7651346-Sil-Glyde-Silicone-Lubricating/dp/B0054DWS1W
Napa Sil-glyde
I replaced the junky ancient thermal compound on a prebuilt, and the temperatures were a little better. The thermal compound was dried out anyway. My 6970 ran much hotter with brake lube (nearly 95C vs 60C during gaming) than with the Noctua NT-H1 I have on it now and I think it was destroying the pcb. The compound was almost clear when I put it on and greenish when I took it off.
I would recommend it as a cheap fix for cpus, but not for gpus.
I used NAPA Sil Glyde, and since it is meant for brakes it doesn't liquify at high temperatures. It's really cheap too, so it might be good for a repair shop.
