Macbook pro hyperventilating, but not over heating.

My macbook pro is the 13 inch from early 2011, 2.3GHz intel core i5, and I play Starcraft 2 on it. It runs smoothly. The problem is, my Macbook easily hyper ventilates, but it doesn't over heat. Is it a bad thing to hyper ventilate? If not, is there something I can do to make it better?

By hyper ventilating I mean the fans making a really loud noise

That may be normal when playing games which are resource intensive applications. Run the AHT as suggested earlier.


Install a temperature/fan speed application. Open Activity Monitor to ALL PROCESSES and set CPU to display values from high to low.


When the fans speed up, post images of both for inspection.


Ciao.
