when playing left dead2/mafia 2 directors cur on imac ;21.5' - 2.7 ghz iwe noticed imac hot touching can difficult touching cause fingers frie!!! istat pro shows temps 60-70 celcius, wich normal temps...?? istat pro showing wrong ? or normal imac hot?
yes, it's quite normal. mac not overheating. intel processors used in macs designed automatically shut down prevent damage if overheat (around 100c/212f - 105c/221f, depending on processor). istat pro give accurate readings of temps , fan speeds, among other things.
unless there rare defect in mac, temps within normal operating range, considering workload being put on it. websites flash content, games , other multimedia apps put higher demand on cpu/gpu, generating more heat. normal. if you're putting high demands on system, such gaming or other multimedia tasks, expect temps rise , fans spin accordingly. it's mac doing job maintain temps within normal range.
fans on when mac on, spinning @ minimum of 2000 rpm (for mbps) or 1800 rpm (for mbas, mbs , minis). spin faster needed keep temps @ safe level. if they're spinning without increased heat, try resetting smc. pram/nvram has nothing these issues, resetting not help.
