Com shuts down when running games

[zendude]

My laptop specs so so bought 2 years ago and at first run swee swee. But about 6 months ago when running games will suddenly hear the fan making lots of noise and it will shut down by itself after a while. Is it the heat that the laptop is no longer able to deal with? fan problem?

check your temperatures when running games.

Hmm I just brought it down to shop and the guy told me might be overheating prob which would cost $80 or motherboard porb which may cost $300. Even tho I told him the laptop runs fine when not playing games he said couldnt determine. How ar? Dunno shld gamble the $80 or not...
