Hi.
I have recently (3-4 months) switched from PC to Mac and have never been happier (MacBook Pro 15").
However, I was very surprised when I played my first ever game on Mac - Warhammer Online. I activated the "Higher Performance" in the preferences to get the most out of my graphics.
About 20 minutes into the game, my smc fan control was showing my temperature between 85-90 Celcius with the fans working on full. Is this normal for MacBook Pro 15? Anyone have the same issues? Whats the point of having 2 graphic cards if the laptop overheats every time a game is played?
