laptop + gaming = heat issues

I can host on my laptop 24/7 while playing games :o it doesn't overheat

you do that for few weeks and your performance will drop atleast 120%

Thanks for the suggestion. It looks good, but it's way out of my budget (when I said I didn't mind saving up some more money, I meant £50 at the most, sorry for confusion xD) and after reading the article I've decided against buying it. I'll do some more searching online. :p

Probly so it's portable?

Edit something like this should be good for you.

Ebay.co.uk/laptop

I'm actually pretty sure that's the laptop my brother has, lol. Thanks for suggesting it, I'll look up some reviews now (I don't buy anything without reading reviews first xD).
