Currently my CPU is running at 200 degrees fahrenheit, I know this is high but is this a temp where I really should be concerned about harming the CPU?
Got a tip for us?

Should I be concerned about these high temps?

The average running temp of a Mac is about 194ºF. It's only running a little bit hot, I don't think it's anything to worry about 
Oh good I assumed the running temp would be lower but I'm really glad to be wrong. I just saw 200 on iStatPro and that seemed way high. Thanks for solving my worries.
