Hello,
I wanted to know what the average CPU temperature Retina MBP users are getting with Mavericks. I downloaded Mavericks over 48hrs ago and my temps seem fairly high when using dual monitors. At idle without dual monitors the CPU is about 100 degrees Fahrenheit. At idle with dual monitors, the CPU temp is about 135 degrees Fahrenheit. A 35 degree increase seems awfully high in my opinion. Are others reading similar temperatures?

Thank you,
Rudolph II

These temps are normal. You get the increase because the discrete GPU is used when another monitor is attached.
