[QUOTE="cazabam, post: 315271, member: 17895"] Mine generally runs between 35 and 50C (it's hitting 48 at the moment). I am guessing that your fans are running because iCyclone is turning them on, seeing that's what it's for ;) Try disabling iCyclone and resetting the fans to their normal speed and see how it goes. One thing that was new in the updated MacBook firmware that came out in September is the feature that the fan speed is related to the CPU load as well as the temperature. In other words, if you're doing something intensive it will up the fan speed to stop it getting hot, rather than battling the heat after it's already warmed up. [/QUOTE]
