Worried about temperature on the MBP Retina
Text:
Hi guys,
(I hope i'm at the good place for my question)
So, i've just received my new MBP Retina yesterday, i'm really crazy about it, really awesome computer but i hoped that the temperature of the MBP should be "colder"
I'm mean, i have also a MacBook Air, and exept during FaceTime / watching video on web (flash), the computer was really normal concerning temperature (50-60C)
I actually use SMC Fan Control for Fan control and iStat Menu to watch temperature
But this MBP (which should be a monster) is hottest than the MBA !
I have actually Chrome (Canary - because, it's the only chrome which actually is supporting retina display), Safari (same reason), Skype v2 (just opened, not calling), Diablo 3 installing ans Teamviewer (opened, not using)
I have like 5-6 tab in my browsers
And the temperature is around 80C with fan rotate at 2800 rpm
So, i don't understand why this MBP (which should be really comfortable at using, with video encoding, gaming, and others...) is really hot like that
Can you explain to me please ? i'm getting worried about it :S
Thanks
(Sorry for my english)
PS : Oh btw, it's the default one, without any changement (256GB SSD and 8GB RAM)
Hope you can help me and maybe reassure me
