So, I got myself this shiny new retina macbook pro 15" 2.3i5, love the display and looks of it... but then this new hmmm... "cooling system"
While having only safari open, one tab, this forum on it, the processor runs on 84*c. Fans on 2159rpm. Computer is on flat, solid surface, aka. my computer desk. Ramping up the fans with smcfancontrol does not make much difference, could this be some really messed up thermal paste thing?
To compare it on something, my old 2009 13" MBP, full of hair and dirt, runs the same thing on 52*c degrees.
So, is this new rMBP and its cooling system really this bad, and these kind of temperatures are totally normal.
