[QUOTE="Raz0rEdge, post: 1806755, member: 110816"] Under load, electronic components get hot, fans are put into computers to channel cool air in and hot air out and adjust the rate they do this with sensors around key components. Aluminum is a good conductor of heat and when the machine is hot, the case will get hot. When the machine is cool, the case will be cool. There is absolutely NOTHING you need to do beyond what has been done by the Apple engineers to keep the Mac Mini functioning. If overheating (to a point of thermal shutdown) was an issue, Apple engineers would have long ago addressed it and would hardly continue to sell these devices. Put the Mac Mini in a well ventilated place and let it do it's thing. You will have no problems with it. [/QUOTE]
