[QUOTE="6string, post: 1254888, member: 120039"] ....and get rid of SMC or any other monitoring apps unless you are able to use it for curiosity rather than freaking yourself out like so many do having these apps running. *I have it installed, and used to have it up and running all the time, and when I was on long skype video calls, it used to distract me seeing the temps rise and the fans take off, enough for me to end the calls! Since I don't have it running anymore, I now have ongoing calls without cutting them short. The temps haven't changed, the fan speed hasn't changed, and my near 4yo MB which even suffered a liquid spill, is still chugging along like a real trooper (lucky as far as the liquid spill goes, but definitely not the norm)! Apple engineers know what they're doing when they design these things! [/QUOTE]
