My existing laptop is still very usable. I had a lot of trouble with overheating in the past in compiling packages.
As for CPU intensive task, I do video conversion from HEVC to x264 to watch movies on my TV via chromecast. I suspect that would happen really fast.
Like you said, I could tinker more, install couple of disk drives and run multiple OS's without hitting the MBR limit.

You could probably get it cleaned in a local laptop repair shop or do it yourself (with the risk of damaging something).
