Any current Intel i5 or i7, or AMD 3600 and higher with 2x8GB memory and a gpu like an RTX 2060.

80+ ratings certify electrical efficiency. Not quality.

The laptop seems ok. Although memory might be tight. What cpu in the laptop?

It is much better than the minimum required but a model down from the recommended gpu.

I find laptop  that have 

AMD Ryzen™ 7 5800H 3,2 - 4,4 GHz

NVIDIA® GeForce RTX™ 3060 + AMD Radeon™ Graphics

up to 34 gb ram  but it can get very hot even 94 c in the shop recommendations  butt been thinking to get

second  laptop  but 3 time more expensive  to pay monthly  

NVIDIA® GeForce RTX™ 3080 + Intel UHD Graphics

AMD Ryzen™ 7 5800H 3,2 - 4,4 GHz

 upto 40 gb ram

The first is more than enough.

 

I don't understand the comment about temperature. Is the store saying that it can reach 94C? If so is this during normal operations or during heavy loads?

Most laptops will get hot when under load for a significant amount of time. Most will be warm under normal operation.

 

94C is high but still safe. The cpu will throttle if temps get too high and will shut down when temps get dangerous. The shutdown is extreme and should save the chip.

 

60C - 65C is not unexpected in light gaming.

 

There are things that can be done to improve temps. From the very simple insuring intakes and exhausts are clear and unobstructed. Through cooling pads. To bios adjustments to marginally reduce upper limits on performance.
