I have a 2012 Mac mini i7 2.3Ghz with fusion drive.
Chrome open with 6 tabs open, and nothing else running (well things like memory clean, cinch, caffeine, Xtra finder, iStat pro, temperature monitor are all on, though Caffeine isn't active) and my mini is at 44-46ºC and and fan between 1790-1805 rpm.
When I run a game like Minecraft or CSR racing it gets to 60-75ºC with speeds around 3600rpm(I think) .. and it is VERY hot when you touch it. And Lego Batman is terrible!
Is this normal?
Should running these types of things make it this hot?
Should I worry about running these things in fear of permanent damage?
Should I avoid these games?
I haven't really played them, because of how hot it got I have just not bothered with them ...
Bought my Mac in February.
