Just wondering if it is normal for the fan on my new macbook pro to come on when i am playing a fps called combat arms in windows xp via book camp. would it help if i propped up the computer or bought a stand?
It is completely normal for the fan to come on, it simply means that the cooling system in the MBP is working as it should. 3D games are taxing on the hardware, which causes them to heat up. The fans circulate cool air over the components to cool them. I would be concerned if they didn't come on.
thank you so much for the quick reply. would it be a good idea to but a book or something under the macbook or purchase a stand to get better air circulation?
