NoSmokingBandit Posted June 8, 2009 Share Posted June 8, 2009 My 3870 seems to be working well, but the air coming from the vent is always warm, even if i've left it sit with a blank screensaver for an hour. In Windows 7 the vent air is feels about room temperature unless im doing some heavy processing, so i assume that osx is running the cpu more than it needs to. Is the higher temps normal or is there something i can do to fix it?
