I can't help but worry about the lifespan of my mini...
The mini is my first mac, and I'm used to my monster sized PCs with 6+ fans, and having the cpu running at nice cool temps.
I know people keep saying it running at 90c when gaming is fine, but if that was 1 of my PCs I would be terrified!
I installed fan control the other day, and that keeps it at something like 50 or 60c when gaming, but the noise of the fan is as scary as having the CPU at 90c lol.
I guess it's just because I'v used PCs for such a long time, I'm programmed to think that running at 90c for any amount of time for actual gaming is seriously bad.
It's annoying because I'd love to spend time gaming on my mini. I know people say that the mini isn't a gaming rig, but it's plenty powerful enough for me graphics wise.
But either way, I only play on it for like 30 mins at a time atm. it's either I think it's gonna melt running so hot, or I use fan control and think the fan is going to wear out.
I was planning on playing Diablo 3 on my mac, But I'll be spending a good few hours every day playing that, and how my mini is atm, I don't think that'd be a good idea. :/
Will playing games for probably like 5 or 6 hours a day be bad for my mini? anyone recommend using fan control or smart fan control, and if so, what settings work best?
(sorry, but when it comes to macs and how they run, I'm totally clueless whats ok and whats not).
*edit*
I have the 2.7GHz i7 mini btw.
