My friend's A42JP is capable of running recent games like Dragon Age 2 under high setting with decent FPS, I'm looking for something with similar performance.

How big of a performance increase does i7 has over i5? And I heard i7 is more prone to overheating, is this true?

Depends your task, if its gaming, it could be minimal effect..
Prone to overheating, yup, since it also has more power..

I see, what about about the difference between a 2GB and a 1GB GPU? Like between an Nvidia GT540M(1GB) and Nvidia GT540M(2GB).

Minimal to none as well, unless you are gaming in really high resolution which ended up the GPU can't cope up with..

Does having a 2GB GPU makes the laptop more prone to overheating like the i7 processor?
