I play on an early retina MacBook Pro, connected to a 24" display, and I've noticed that while running Eve, the operating temp stays around 90-95 C, sometimes peaking at over 100 C. Is this normal, or is my computer running hot for some reason?

unless you must have full screen running in windowed mode may help.

I noticed decet temp drops on a late 11 15" mbp after I saw that advised somewhere here.

Thanks! I'll give that a shot. I just wasn't sure what the "normal" and "safe" operating temps are.
