[QUOTE="chscag, post: 1116691, member: 46727"] I don't have an iMac so our readings and temps are going to be a bit different, however, from looking at your stats, everything looks normal as far as I can determine. Shutting itself off is a bit worrisome though. I doubt that it's being caused by overheating unless the logic board sensors aren't working right. The only other causes of shutting down randomly that I can think of is if the power supply is acting up or a memory module is intermittent. Since your Apple care is about to expire... if you live near an Apple store, it might be a good idea to take it in and get it on record that something is wrong. That way if the machine needs repair after the warranty expires, they'll have your visit on file, and if the repair is related, they'll do it for free. [/QUOTE]
