I own a MacBook Pro and was wondering if my laptop was running at to high of a temp. I saw another thread like this, but my laptop runs at a higher temp 4 some reason. When running frostwire or the iTunes visualizer, my laptop gets up to around 175˚ F. I think this might be too high for a 2.16 Ghz C2D. I may have 2 fans in this laptop, but still, 175˚F?

If you have an XP partition try checking the temps under that.

Yeah we are best friends. I used iStat Pro and seems to be fairly correct for what i have seen on other temp readings. I'll try to get a pic up for all who asked.

whoah. thats wrong. core 2 duo's throttle themselves at 75C which would make your computer freeze, essentially.

While it's still extremely hot, I think you are getting C and F mixed up, since rarely does anyone use Fahrenheit when talking about PC temps.
