I'm a complete noob when it comes to computers, hardware wise at least My laptop can play games such as Starcraft or League of Legends fine w/o heating up for hours. Playing a game such as Call of Duty Black Ops 1/2 plays somewhat fine on my laptop, but it always drops frames here and there which causes me losses and downs in zombies most times when it's critical and my laptop gets insanely hot from just a few mins of gameplay. I do have a fan I bought for the laptop, it's a dual fan that goes under the laptop and is powered on by usb. I was wondering if I could upgrade this laptop but I heard not all of them can do that, so I'm here to ask you Tempers for advice.
