[QUOTE="Raz0rEdge, post: 1627901, member: 110816"] I really wouldn't pay much attention to the speeds or anything, the machine is smart enough to do the right thing.. I use VMWare Fusion on my rMBP at work and have 2 VMs running at all times. When the machine is largely idle, the CPU temp is around 66-70C. Once I get a build running either VM, the temps will get up to 98-100C and the fans will kick in to control that.. Right now, the two fans in my system are running around 2300 RPM. At the higher temps, they will rev up to 6000+ RPM and are definitely audible, but then so is the heat being generated which I can feel with the aluminum case of the rMBP. [/QUOTE]
