Upgraded the day it was released, last few days I feel that you could cook an egg on my MBP after 2 hours of working (nothing fancy, IDE and browsers open - no heavy GPU usage). Do more people feel that 10.8.x overheats the machine?
- _djo_ 14y agoNope, been better than Lion performance and heat wise for me. Might be worth trying a SMC reset.
- avimeir 14y agoGood idea, I'll give it a try.
- rwc 14y agoThis has been a huge issue on my mid-2010 MBP and others have reported the same on Apple forums. My MBP has been overheating, throwing up artifacts all over the screen and freezing requiring a hard reboot. So far so good though... fingers crossed.
- Dystopian 14y agoAlso have a mid-2010 that I use mostly for design. Definitely noticed the artifacts at 10.8 - haven't seen any during work today after updating to 10.8.1 though FC
- e40 14y agoYes! I definitely noticed the back, left area on the bottom was hotter than I ever remember it.
