Hello,
can someone tell me what temperatures you have (with iStatMenu) when you let your 2,3 i7 work to the maximum? My System runs than around 95 to 99 °C Sometimes 100°C. I think that is to warm but what do other people have in maximum situations?
Thank you very much.
Bye
MacBook Pro with Retina display, OS X Mavericks (10.9)
Don't use it on you lap, use it on a flat clear of obstruction surface. I use computers that run hot, my kids game a lot and there are quite a few compute cycles gong on, i have built a "cafatria" type of try that has at least 1/3rd inch of clearance under the machine, thatcafeteria provide 360 degree airflow. you can also look into cooling trays, there are many on line.
That think is on an flat table. But is that Temperature normal? Or must i go to the apple support? I mean i have 3 years ACPP but i have no idea if this Temps are good for an MBPr?
Take advantage of the Applecare telephone support you have paid for and get a definitive answer. I think that you are experiencing slightly hotter temperatures than 'normal' but I do not have a retina MBP.

That is on the high side, some of the games are CPU/GPU intensive,
you can try a SMC reset to make sure that the fans are repnding properly:

Follow directions for a battery that you should not remove yourself.
Since you have AppleCare, make a Genius bar appointment and have it checked out. (hey you paid for it, take full advantage of it)

It is possible that the temp sensor is not happy. You paid, make it their problem.
Hey OGELTHORPE,
Just for being so helpful to me over time, I wish you and yours the very best of holidays.
Thank you for all your insight and education...Peace

Likewise 🙂

Hello again.
i have reed some time ago that Systems can start when it will be to warm to start to throttle the CPU. Do this made an apple too? And where i can see if the system is than throttle?
Thx.

I do not know if OSX will throttle the CPU when it gets hot. It will shut it down if the CPU temperature reaches a certain temperature.
CPU throttling will occur when there is no battery detected. That is the only circumstance that I know of.
Ciao.
Thx. And what is that shut down than? Freeze the system than or drive it down like SBy or Drive down?
The MBP will shut off.
Ciao.
With wich tool do you all looking for the temperatures? And how many °C or °F get u wenn u are made full Videowork with 4/8 core rendering etc??
For Lion OSX and earlier, I use iStat pro. For Mt. Lion and Mavericks, istat menus. Intensive CPU/GPU applications can register temperatures as high as the 90°c + range.
Ciao.
Yesterday i have try something in iVI and than i found a Setting where i can say the system of iVI that i can use Automatic or 1 to 8 Threads for the Programm. After i have gave the system only 3 or 4 Cores the Macbook runs around 40 to 50 % But the CPU runs over 90°C again. Most around 92 to 93 °C. But the Fans wasnt run on Max. Mostly around 3000 to 4000. I think that must be normal. When the Temsp where to high for the Macbook than the Fans where run to the maximum i think.

At those temperatures (90°c+), the fans should be operating at maximum speed (6200 rpm). I suggest a SMC reset:

If there is no change, an appointment at an Apple store genius bar for an evaluation should be made.
Ciao.
I have try it for 2 days with the smc Reset. I dont know if that was work. The LED was complete green all the time. No blinking or off there.
haswell MBPr 15 Temperature??
