- 15in MBP - 27in iMac - iPhone
Details: MacBook Pro Core2Duo 2.4 (late 2007)
Back in November I had a problem where the computer sudden didn't turn back on. The logic board was replaced and everything was fine.
Here is the thread for that: http://www.mac-forums.com/forums/apple-notebooks/175055-mbp-not-booting-not-awaking-sleep-mode.html
That same week I purchased a 27in iMac and well lets just say the MBP (MacBook Pro) didn't get used much.
Since then I've started to use the MBP more often and i have notice; when ever i am playing a video or game the CPU temperatures increase to 210+.
This heat problem never happened before the logic board was replaced. I took it to the Genius bar today and they ran a few quick test and said hardware wise it appears fine. Unfortunately they only warranty the board for 90days after the replacement. The offered to do more extensive test for 85.00, and that would go towards the 310.00 if they figure out the problem and repair it.
I really don't want to spend another 310.00 dollars on this computer...AGH...
Anyone have any suggestion?
