The problem is that the laptop itself turns off during the game process or in other resource-intensive tasks is one of the most common portable computers among users. As a rule, it is preceded by a strong heating of the laptop, the noise of fans, possibly "brakes". Thus, the most likely reason is the overheating of the laptop. To avoid damage to electronic components, the laptop turns off automatically when a certain temperature is reached.

Details about the causes of heating and how to solve this problem you can read in the article what to do if the laptop is very hot. There will also be a slightly more brief and general information.
Causes of heating
Today, most laptops have sufficiently high performance indicators, but often its own cooling system does not cope with the laptop highlands. In addition, the laptop's vent holes in most cases are on the bottom, and since the distance to the surface (table) is only a couple of millimeters, the heat released by the laptop simply does not have time to dissipate.
When operating a laptop, you must follow the following simple rules: do not use a laptop, putting on an uneven soft surface (for example, a blanket), you should not put it on your knees, in general: it is impossible to overlap the ventilation openings from the bottom of the laptop. The most simple will be the operation of a laptop on a flat surface (for example, a table).
The following features can signal the overheating of the laptop: the system begins to "slow down", "freezes", or the laptop is completely disconnected - the internal protection of the system from overheating is triggered. As a rule, after cooling (from a few minutes to an hour), the laptop fully restores the performance.
To make sure that the disconnection of the laptop occurs precisely because of overheating, use the specialized utilities, such as Open Hardware Monitor (site: http://openhardwaremonitor.org). This program is distributed free of charge and allows you to control the temperature indicators, fan speed, voltage in the system, data load speed. Install and run the utility, then run the game (or the application causing a failure). The program will fix the system indicators. Of which it will be clearly seen, whether the laptop is turned off due to overheating.
How to deal with overheating?
The most frequent solution of the heating problem when working with a laptop is the use of an active cooling stand. In such a stand built (usually two) fans, which provides an additional heat dissipation of the machine. To date, there are many types of such supports from the most famous manufacturers of cooling equipment for mobile PCs: Hama, Xilence, Logitech, Glacialtech. In addition, such supports are increasingly supplied with options, for example: USB porter splitters, built-in speakers, and the like that will give additional convenience to work on a laptop. The cost of cooling stands usually ranges from 700 to 2000 rubles.
Such a stand can be made at home. For this, there will be two fans, a girlfriend, for example, a plastic cable channel, to connect and create a stand frame, and a little imagination to give a shape stand. The only problem with the self-made support of the stand can be the feeding of those fans, as it is more difficult to withdraw the necessary voltage from the laptop than, say, from the system unit.
If, even when using a cooling stand, the laptop is still turned off, it is likely that the cleaning of its internal surfaces from dust is required. Such pollution can cause serious damage to the computer: in addition to reducing performance, cause failure of the system elements. Cleaning can be carried out independently when the warranty period for your laptop has already expired, but if you do not have sufficient skills, it is better to contact the specialists. Such a procedure (purging with compressed air nodes of the laptop) will be held in most service centers for a symbolic fee.
