I think that it'd be best if you can post few laptops for that price from websites of croatian hardware stores, and we'll help you choose the best option, or possibly find something better on those sites.

I've managed to remove noise from background to make the voice clearer with audacity. I guess you can do the same with audacity(music instead of noise in your case)

Well slightly weaker CPU, also weaker GPU. The battery lasts up to 2 hours less than Lenovo's and doesn't have USB 3.0. I wouldn't consider it. Just to explain myself better, I am trying to give you the best performance/value choice, not looks, solid build or lifespan. That's up to you. Lenovo...

I'd go with Lenovo Essential G510. It has a better CPU than the rest and it's using DDR3L RAM which has lower voltages, thus lower heat and better working frequency. The in-build GPU HD 4600 is good enough for light gaming.

You need to post a few laptops from the hardware stores you plan to buy that are around your budget. We'll then help you to choose. I don't know where you live exactly so I can't offer you a laptop and assuming that you'll be able to buy it.

It activates automatically, but you should do the opposite thing. You need to put your laptop in some power saving mode/entertainment. Whichever prevents using the TurboCore. This will give you time to solve the problem as CPU's temp will stay within the limit and games won't crash.

The AMD A6-3420M (Codename Llano) is a quad-core processor for entry level laptops. It is part of the Fusion family of APUs (=Accelerated Processing Units) and features an integrated Radeon HD 6520G graphics card. The processor core is clocked at 1.4 GHz base clock speed and is able to...

40-60c on idle is somewhat okay, but reaching 100c when gaming can damage the laptop's components. This is happening because of the turbo boost that the CPU is doing. It seems like you've set lower power settings now and the CPU isn't using turbo boost anymore and thus the lower temp (compared...

Can't you find somebody else for a second opinion? And what did he actually fix? The HDD? That has nothing to do with this...

I think it's obvious that you have an overheating problem. The way to fix this is too find a hardware professional or company in your area that would dismantle the lap top and clean it properly, reapply thermal paste too.

These are idle?

Can you check the temps one more time using this software http://www.cpuid.com/softwares/hwmonitor.html for more accurate parameters. Post them here(screenshot).

Reaching 90c is a real problem, especially if that happens in less than 5min. Think about the temp it will reach if it didn't crash and you were gaming continuously for more than 30min, it would've gone over 100c which can damage the CPU. So the crashing seems like a protection from damaging the...

So the CPU is reaching almost 90c just for starting the game and going into the menu?

How long do you run them before they crash?
