Where are you placing your laptop?

Laptop. Gaming.

lolwut.

Unless you have a gaming, gaming laptop, don't expect to be able to play "high-end" games.

This happened to my old laptop after I spilt milk on it, basically I fucked mine up.
YOu might have done that too

If you are trying to play games with your laptop on your lap.... good luck with that.... you must make sure the laptop is getting excellent ventilation, my laptop used to overheat whilst playing games, so what i would do if i had it on a table was prop up the back by about 2-3cm to get some my airflow into the fan......

if you plan to continue playing games on your laptop i suggest a purchase of a usb powered laptop cooler


If you have the choice play it on a desktop

Doesn't have to be a gaming laptop. Just decently specced. Like a Mac. =D

What are the specs?

If you dont clean the inside of your laptop every six months, it can mess up the fans and continuously overheat.

Clean it out and if still does the same thing, buy a gaming desktop, not laptop.
