Macbookpro Too Hot ?? Here's The Fix — #15
Yeah the fans turning on more often to me is an indicative that the chips are getting actually hotter, not cooler.

Macbookpro Too Hot ?? Here's The Fix — #16
I don't buy that heat gets trapped INSIDE the case. If that would happen, then the heat wouldn't reach the fans and they wouldn't turn on.
Since they now turn on more often, accor…

What I don't buy is that the heat reaches more easy the exterior of the computer than the internal sensors, no matter how many thermal paste you put wrong there is more stuff betwe…
Macbookpro Too Hot ?? Here's The Fix — #18
All of Intel's chips have thermal sensors built in. Another "system" temperature may be reported (who knows where that sensor is), but the CPU temp is from the internal diode.
You…

Ok, I can't find the link now, but one of these home-fixers specifically said that he saw temp sensors (or some wiring from it) by the fans only, nowhere else. So that means that t…

Been following the Apple discussions thread, now that there IS an utility to measure the chips IN DIE sensors. So far there are reports of people "fixing" the paste with high tempe…

So if I buy a macbookpro today, would it still have the heat and whine issues?
Macbookpro Too Hot ?? Here's The Fix — #22
I wouldn't say the heat is an "issue" more than a fundamental "flaw". The whine is an issue, and probably you will still get it with a new one, there is no official word on getting…

i think the inverter whine has been fixed for new models.
cpu whine however has not.
Macbookpro Too Hot ?? Here's The Fix — #24
I exchanged a Week 11 for a Week 14 hoping that it'd be cooler.

"I still stand in the "no help in reapplying the thermal" camp."
What would it take to convince you otherwise? BTW, here is the result after redoing the paste on mine...

Oh, I see. And it uninstalls and remove it when I quit the application?
EDIT: Just tried that application. It said 25C. AHAHAHA! My Macbook is twice that on the outside even! Whic…

Seriously...is the MBP completely unusable as a *lap*-top? Even if I always wear jeans like I do with my TiBook? I think the difference is the MBP gets heated on the sides wherea…
