All notebooks will get hot when under load i.e. gaming. Only those not maintained properly or have malfunctioned cooling systems will overheat and auto-shutdown.
But if you are worried about tempratures, always go for larger notebooks, which in this case, the more common 15 inchers.
15" notebooks have more space for heat dissipation, are relatively cheaper for the specs, and has more workspace, but all at the expense of portability.
So in the end it depends on what you are looking for icon_rolleyes.gif

The AW 14 is a great choice if you are gaming on the go, but then there are other alternatives as well in this category  icon_rolleyes.gif
