[QUOTE="bobtomay, post: 1188838, member: 24160"] I freaked out sort of with my MBP. My custom homebuilt rigs at the time I bought my first Mac, I was use to tweaking them, upgrading heat syncs and fans and tried to get my CPU running at 23-25C at idle and max of 40-45C under load. Then I get a MBP and the thing is running at 90C while playing WoW during multi-hour sessions - WoW is what I thought. 4+ years later, this thing is still running as good as and better in some areas than the day I brought it home with the couple of HD and RAM upgrades that have been made during that time. Got mine instead of building a new rig around the time Vista was about to hit the shelves. Hope you enjoy your Mac as long as I have mine now. [/QUOTE]
