[QUOTE="6string, post: 990566, member: 120039"] skype burns it all up (runs really hot) in video chat. I use a MB, and I have noticed that skype video chats go upto 96deg Celsius (204.8). 125F while typing this! I use smc fan control keeping the fans just slightly higher than default, but even then, these temps still happen. So, yes, this is normal :) You will find many threads on these temps... many that I have added my 2 cents worth. Environment has a lot to do with it.... -temp of location -where you use your laptop and how much airflow you allow You can invest in one of many stands which will decrease the running temps, but as I said above, there is nothing to concern yourself about, but just to keep your I on it, and if you are using skype video often, perhaps use fan control software and set it a little higher than default when you see it spiking around or above the 212F.
