i know temperature should be my own issue and probably my computer is just crap and stuff, though i really like to contribute to the projects. but especially in summer overheating really is an issue and i often had the case that my computer shut off during work, which got quite frustrating and causing me to shut BOINC off completely during summer.

what i would need is an option like:
computing allowed while CPU temp is < 65°

Temperature sensing doesn't follow any kind of standards. It varies with OS, MB, Bios, CPU. Your not likely to ever see this feature in Boinc.
