[QUOTE="Gravey, post: 1184652, member: 182596"] It only runs that hot with cs:source which is what baffles me. Normal op. temp with itunes and adium and a browser running stays pretty consistently in the mid 50's to low 60's. I don't think it's a problem with my mbp itself but I don't want to keep clocking it out if it's going to shorten the machine's life. I need to do some experiments with lowering the graphics settings in the game to see if that changes anything. I'm running what's recommended for my hardware :Confused: Luckily though, Philly got an Apple store a little while back so it's not far if I need help! [/QUOTE]
