Laptop shutdowns after cpu upgrade

Hello, guys!

I have a problem. Today I have bought an Intel i5-3380M (used), to replace my Celeron B980. I am using Samsung NP300E5X-A02BG laptop, here are the specs before the upgrade: 

Intel Celeron B980 (Intel HD graphics)

Samsung EVO 850 250GB SSD

4GB (2x2GB) RAM DDR3

Standard DVD

The only thing changed is the CPU ( upgrade to an i5-3380M) and the integrated graphics whit it. And now my laptop work fine on when I boot it up, but in some time it shuts down unexpectedly.

I have monitored the temperature, 45-50C when shutting down. So I don't think this is the problem. Please help me, thanks!

I don't think you're supposed to replace stuff in laptops. they're generally not upgradeable, other than the HDD and RAM.

When I first got this laptop it was with a B820, after a while I have put a B980 and it worked fine.

Is it a newer gen CPU? The laptop mobo BIOS may not support it properly. I'd try reinstalling Windows and see what it does.

might be a power consumption issue, the i5 will consume a lot more power than the Celeron, the laptop's motherboard probably does not have the required power delivery for it...

"cpuboss" says that the power consumption is the same between the i5-3380m and the B980

Well Intel also says that, but keep in mind, TDP and power consumption is NOT the same... I wouldnt be surprised that when the CPU and iGPU is more taxed, it consumes a bit more power, and the laptop is just plain too strict about power...

Any solution you guys can think of?

Put the old B890 in again and deal with the performance hit and buy new when you have enough money pooled.

I've wanted to upgrade to the i5-3380m due to its virtual machine support.

Is there any way to buy a laptop (or desktop) with a chip that supports it because from my experience there is no way to change how a laptop behaves to more juice needed by the CPU.
