Fan Speed Noise Heat problem with Apple Cinema?
Hi folks 🙂
I just found that the MBP 15" Late 2011 becomes hot and noisy after 30 minutes of using it with the Apple Cinema Display of 22" through the Mini Display Port (converted to HDMI -> DVI). I wasn't running any exhausting task, just surfing the web.
The constant temperature was 65 ºC, followed, of course, by the loud sound of the fan. When I unplugged the Apple Cinema Display, the computer cooled down to 45 ºC, and the fan stopped making noise.
Right now, I've plugged the Cinema Display again and I'm seeing that the CPU Temperature is rising its levels again (02:20 a.m.). CPUT is now at 56 ºC at (05:20 a.m.).
I'm puzzled here. So... why the MBP has had this problem and later it hasn't had it? 😕
Thanks for your replies!
