[QUOTE="TomTomTuning, post: 990421, member: 68774"] I have a C2D silver key 15in MBP, i had an issue about a month ago that needed the logic board replaced. I dropped the computer off at the Apple store and a week later got it back. I haven't used the computer much since because i also got a 27in iMac around the same time. I started using the MBP more and ive notice that the computer is pretty warm, and gets very hot when I'm doing anything with video. CPU temp while typing this is = 120F CPU temp while video chat on skype = 180-212F GPU diode while video chat on skype = 165F The fan speeds go up and down accordingly, so i know they are working. Ive even downloaded smcFanControl, which helps for idle temps. It's never cut off on me due to heat, but still its ab-normal. It wasn't like this before the logic board got replaced. So I'm thinking either something else is messed up, or something with the logic board replacement isn't right. Does anyone have any opinions or recommendations before i take it back to the apple store. [/QUOTE]
