Since the topic of the less then spectacular performance of my MBP has been discussed to death, is there at least a way to make it run quieter and possibly cooler? Because whenever I play MineCraft or GMOD the fan on this thing starts going so fast and loud I can barely hear the game audio even with the volume on maximum.
Are there any 3rd party fan/heatsinks that are quieter and possibly more efficient at cooling this thing? Or failing that is there anything I can do to make the fans run quieter or keep my MBP cooler so the fan isnt running as much?
I've already cleaned out the fan and vents with compressed air.
Or could cleaning off the old thermal paste from the heatsink, CPU, and GPU (yes I know how to do that without breaking it) and applying new paste help boost the thermal conductivity?
