This site will help collect and show the temperatures of Apple Macintosh computers using the new processors by Intel. All new computers that haven't faced the trail of time
will have problems and issues that can make users mad and furious. As with the new MacBook Pro machines where were, and still are, problems with heat dissipation. After scouting
forums and help sites for information about what temperatures I can expect on a new MacBook, but that turned out to be harder and more scattered than I first imagined. That's the main
motive behind this site and it didn't take too long to setup as I had the base code handy from another site.

Using SMC Fan control to keep cpu cool on load.
Using Temperature Monitor to alert on hot cpu.
I'm a little annoyed why is my mac getting that hot on load? Might be due to its case? |

After Upgrade to 10.6.3:
Stock:
Idle Temperature: 54 °C
Load Temperature: 85 °C
Hard drive temperature: 36 °C
Summary:
Do not need to regulate Temperatures via SMCFan Control anymore. I oonly do that, when im using any GL Gaming. |
