Can you suggest a decent priced and good processor for an 8GB RAM laptop, HP Pavilion 15-n266sa. I have a very bad processor at the moment, it gets very hot very quickly, it has never over heated and I may also need a new graphics card - AMD Radeon HD 7600G, Processor (QUAD) - AMD A8-4555M APU. RAM: 8GB (7.19 Usable) Also how do I change the amount of usable or is it not possible?

More than likely the CPU is soldered to the motherboard which makes it near on impossible to replace not to mention that there is hardly any places that sell laptop CPU's and of course compatibility on top of that. The whole process isn't worth it nor justifiable for the price you would have to pay to have it done.

This also accounts for the GPU aswell.

Low end APU's aren't exactly bad, but they get the job done.

The higher end market are perfectly fine for light gaming. So saying iGPU's are bad isn't exactly true.
