I was playing Minecraft on my new computer (Asus), and I'm not sure if I'm just an idiot or if my computer is really bad for Minecraft or what because it's suddenly unplayable. It doesn't crash or anything, the graphics just seriously bug out. I think I have Windows 8 as the guy at the computer store said it was either 7 or 8 and this is definitely not 7. I have no idea how to find out either because this is so FHSKLFJl
Anyway here's the stuff about my graphics...I think.
Display:
Intel(R) HD Graphics 530
Render:
NVIDIA GeForce GTX 960M
Also it says intel CORE i7 on the bottom left of my laptop. So there's that.
I put some pictures to show what's happening. It was working great at first but then suddenly...that. It's progressively getting worse. If the picture doesn't work, it kind of looks like white/red glitchy warped splotches that move around erratically whenever I move.
graphics glitches like that are typically a sign or a gpu going bad, or overheating.
as your using a laptop can you hit f3 ingame and read off the GPU listed on the right of the page, it maybe using the intel gpu instead of the gtx, to force the gtx you need to goto the nvidia control panel in 3d application settings and tell it to use the gtx for java.exe and javaw.exe
My laptop isn't very hot. It is using the intel one for Minecraft, though. However I can't figure out how to tell it to use gtx for java.exe in the 3D settings. I've found a "program settings" and Minecraft is in there, but that's it.

i don't have a nvidia card myself so can't say exactly what to do, but there are plenty guides out there on forcing minecraft to run on a nvidia card and not onboard gpu.
feeling for temp is pointless as its the temp at the gpu you need to look at, not the temperature of the case, there are many programs out there that read the real temperature of hardware, on easy one is speedfan

hmm might have happened to me before, most probably it was your incorrect graphic settings, check and test them again
