I just recently bought a HP Pavillion 15 Notebook with specs:
AMD Quad core A8 6410 Accelerated Processor with
AMD Radeon R5 Graphics 2.00 GHZ
1TB Hard Drive
8192MB DDR3 SDRAM
OS: Windows 8.1
I want to know if there's anything I can do to increase its performance because when the game just starts, my fps is at 80-90. Then once minions spawn it goes to 30-40. Please help me!

First, you should update your drivers to the newest version. AMD drivers are usually less stable than NVidia's(believe me, I have experience). Also, you should turn off every application except LoL. Of course, you can turn to overclocking, but that's harder for laptops. Also, you can put Windows Basic instead of Aero. You can turn off explorer.exe, also not that important. You can lower the graphic quality of the game. Good luck!

I did download a driver. I'm not sure though if it was the latest one for my system.

The driver depends on the graphics. If you downloaded the most recent drivers for that card and for you system (Windows 7 HP 32-bit for example), then no worries. You should try the other things I mentioned. Also, maybe a component is defective, but unlikely.

can't find info on this laptops motherboard. But upgrading a cpu on a laptop is no easy task. Upgrading your laptop to an AMD A10 would really be the only way to get better performance. I cannot tell you if this is a possible upgrade, because I cannot identify the motherboard. Either way, it would be very difficult for someone who is not familiar with working on laptops. It may not even be worth the effort.
