Question about Temperatures on MacBook Pro

[teerexx52]

I have a 13" latest model Macbook Pro. I love to play Farmville. The temperatures on my computer get into the 85*C range quickly even with the fans on at 4000+ RPMs. Would this be be likely to happen with any of the MacBook pro laptop computers? Would a 15" dedicated video card make any difference? Just trying to find some sort of an answer. Thanks everyone.

Yes, that will happen with any of the notebooks.

Macs are designed to automatically shut down to prevent damage if they truly overheat (around 100C/212F - 105C/221F, depending on your processor). The temps you mention are well within the normal operating range, depending on the workload on the system, as searching the forum with Google will reveal:

Farmville uses flash, flash is poorly coded and cpu intensive in OS X, things are going to get toasty and that's that.

Download the latest version of flash with hardware acceleration enabled, there isn't anything else you can do.
