Hi,
I buy new Macbook Pro 15 mid 2012 non Retina and I have problems with palmrest temperature (mainly left). CPU temperatures are standard, but, left part of palmrest is too hot.
If I compare it to rMBP late 2013 with GT750, which I have before (I change it to nonRetina because of Retina), I found, that Retina have stronger airflow from vents.
So, I compare pictures of Retina and nonRetina fans and it seems, that Retina have better geometry and maybe, nonRetina blow some air back to body (bottom part of fans is not covered).
My question is: Can I replace original fans with retina fans?
Or, maybe, is any solution to replace DVD drive with third fan?
Or, is solution to make something like this? https://forums.macrumors.com/threads/1765407/ or http://www.philmug.ph/forum/f24/my-fearless-experiment-my-nr-macbook-pro-mid-2012-a-85105/
Thanks.
