What is the relation between semiconductor’s temperature, resistance and computer performance?

Because IIRC semiconductor’s resistance drops when it temperature rises. Why is computer(s of any kind) then slowing down istead of speeding up, specifically?

Computers don’t just become slower when they get hot. They are deliberately slowing themselves down so they don’t overheat to a point where the electronics would get damaged.
