[QUOTE="ClockworkWorld, post: 1184624, member: 182559"] I wouldn't like it running that hot either, personally. As I said, we don't game, and ours always stays literally ice cold unless we're really working it extremely hard, so I can't imagine it hot. But like we said, I am sure it would prevent damage to itself :) Gaming is hard on any machine, Windows or OS X based, as far as cooling goes unless it's specifically designed soley for gaming, which the Mac line is not. If you're really concerned, I wonder if it would be worth taking it to the Apple store to get looked at? Nothing wrong with being on the safe side, and like you said, if it does somehow get damaged and the failsafes don't protect it, you have the warranty. [/QUOTE]
