As for iMacs and laptops, of course there’s no good way to apply external cooling. Maybe the tMP could benefit from 3 fans hitting it at all angles but I doubt it. The tMac Pro (trashcan Mac Pro, post-2012), well that’s a temperature disaster all together. It needs the design for airflow to do it’s best work. Even the cMac Pro (Classic Mac Pro, pre-2012) does not really benefit from opening the side panel and aiming a fan at it. How a Mac got additional cooling back in the day The Mac would be OK and whatever dust was in there would blow out too. The solution was simple, just open that Mac up and point a fan or two at it. While that worked for me, my computers did not appreciate the lack of cool air and even the G3 and G4 (which typically ran pretty cool) would get very hot very quick. Where I grew up there was no air conditioning, we simply didn’t need it. So what can you do to keep your Mac’s temperatures in check? Read on to find out. Heat and dust are the primary computer killers (not covering electromigration here), specially when they work together. CPU’s and GPU’s become more energy efficient every year but they still run at the same, or higher, temperatures.Įven with the latest CPU’s and GPU’s being far more energy efficient, when a little workload is applied temperatures immediately shoot up. With Macs becoming thinner and components being smaller and more crammed together than ever, you can expect internal temperatures to rise quickly.
