I've been doing a bit of gaming on my rMBP in Windows 7 and have noticed that the metal in between the keys is getting extremely hot. It feels like I'm getting burnt every time I accidentally touch the keyboard frame when pushing down a key.
I don't actually get burnt of course, it's just a sharp sensation that feels like a burn which subsides very quickly. The palmrest etc are warm but not as hot as the keyboard frame gets though!
I'll be doing a lot of my gaming using an external keyboard so this isn't a major issue for me, but I can see it being a bit of an issue for other people. I'm not sure of any free utility on Windows which can read temperatures off the GPU sensors, but FWIW iStat reports a temperature of 65 degrees Celsius on the GPU diode after rebooting the machine into OS X (enough time to cool it down a bit, since I am in a well air-conditioned room).
Is anyone else noticing this or is it just me?
