Maybe something smal insect or some bit of paper has go stuck into the tunnel for the fan you better take the back off and clean the fan and remove the obstruction

NO, it's nothing like this.
It's clean.

Does your laptop have a discrete graphics card?

 

[rockxdude]

Yes, it has

The Z580 only has one single fan, and I honestly think it's the fan.
Try using Lenovo's utility to clean the fan, there should be a dedusting option, use that.
If not, you can always open up the thing, and add some lub to the fan.

Had a similar problem with a Client's S100 once, opened it, lub it and walla.
