How long is too long to play in one sitting without my laptop over heating?

I have a gaming laptop that is brand new and it's a Lenovo y410p. I've been playing for four hours on World of Warcraft with my brother and his friend. We plan on pulling an all nighter. My brother just moved so I barely get to talk to him. So this is a once and a blue moon opportunity. I have a graphics card in my computer and it gets pretty hot on that side. The computer has good ventilation and it is on a desk right now. Will it be really bad for my computer if I play the whole night?

Please answer.

Just got a new laptop and the fan keeps whirring/running?

Just on Monday I went to Best Buy and bought a Lenovo Yoga 2 11 inch laptop. It's really, really awesome with no cons whatsoever, except this, which I'm not sure is really a con or not, it just makes me really really nervous.
My old laptop was from about 4 years ago, an older Compaq Notebook, and the fan on that thing RAN, LOUD too. It was also really really hot and the battery life sucked.
This new Lenovo laptop does really, really well (sorry old laptop, lol), and when I first got it I didn't hear any fan, and if I did it was very low. Like a little whirring kind of sound. But now the whirring just keeps going and going. It's very low, like Way softer and quieter than my old laptop. But is there a reason why it's just running and whirring now? I've only had this for like 3 days, and today- and even right now- the whirring is just going and going. It runs Windows 8 and I've somewhat learned how to close programs I'm not using, but why does it keep whirring? I also got this for school and I'm really afraid the fan/whirring noise will be too loud for school. (social akward/ not meant for people interaction part here) I'm afraid it will cause too much attention towards me.
Does anyone have some tips?
Please and thank you.

Are Notebooks Good For Sims 3?

I want to get a LENOVO Flex 10 Touch Mini Notebook PC but I'm unsure as to whether or not notebooks are any good for playing Sims and other casual games on. I don't want to use up all the memory inside it just on sims, is it a good idea to get this?

This is the product:

Microphone jack on a Lenovo laptop?

Today I bought a headphone and microphone headset, and went to plug it into my laptop, but there's only one jack, with a headphone photo over it. I have no idea where to plug my microphone in (i could live without them both in at the same time) I plugged the mic into the headphone jack, but it just recognizes it as a headphone?

Power supply buzzing for laptop?

Ok so I've read here and there that power supply buzzing is probably nothing to worry about, and am just wondering if the fact that it's a higher wattage than the original supply (90W as opposed to 65W) is the cause? If this is the case, then so far as I understand there's nothing to be worried about. But if there's, let me know!

The voltages match so that's no issue, and by the way, it's for a Lenovo T410 Thinkpad.

Added (1). Oh err the buzzing is very slight, you have to hold your ear close to hear it.
