Minecraft can be a CPU taxing game. Looking at your system, it wouldn't surprise me if your computer was overheating due to age and because it's a laptop.

It does get hot by the cpu fan area, so might need cleaning?

Yes, possibly. Overheating could be your issue. Try installing "core temp" to see you processor's temperature.

Yeah, that could be your issue. When your processor gets too hot, your motherboard will usually throttle it to cool down. Sounds like you need to clean it out with an air duster and possible need to get a chill mat.
