[QUOTE="rachalmers, post: 1823081, member: 402263"] Yes, be careful adding lots of third party apps. Most are unnecessary, and a lot are 32bit. Which soon won’t work. You don’t need fan control. The Mac one is all you need, it’s built in. The less you have running in the background the better. Open up the System Preferences and see what you have starting up at boot time. Open Security and see what you are giving access to. Disable all non Apple programs, and get rid of most of it. Apple is very good at looking after itself. As for maintenance. Take the bottom off and blow out the dust every six months. Sent from my iPhone using Mac-Forums [/QUOTE]
