[QUOTE="baggss, post: 1197327, member: 6762"] Mine never showed any signs of coolant leak, otherwise I would have followed the above advice. Over the years of having the heat issue I would occasional lay the machine on its side or upside down immediately after shutting it down looking for a coolant leak I could point out to the Apple folks. Nothing. That's what leads me to believe it was either a paste issue on CPU A or a clog in CPU A's cooling loop. I suppose I could still call Apple and complain about the issue. Maybe I could get a new MAcPro out of the deal! [/QUOTE]
