I also wanted to undervolt my PC but it looks like they dropped unsigned kexts support in 10.15.4 so I think I'm not even able to do this via Volta or VoltageShift.

1 running on my MacBook Pro and that tells me that the CPU runs at around 50C if I pre-set. This is happening to me only in this laptop and in well known websites so it is not malware, it is some kind of bug. If you want to use the temperature sensors or CPU/GPU temp.

And this is the 'normal' behavior.Ībnormal behavior: Sometimes Chrome some chrome tab starts draining power like crazy for no reason When temperature seems over usual I just start closing random tabs until suddenly temperature drops 10✬. Activity monitor also pushes the temperature 10 degrees as it draws constantly a lot of power. And this is the improved performance after I changed the thermal paste (Noctua NT-NH1).

For my Mac Pro that’s 50 to 95 F (10 to 35 C). Also important is the operating temperature listed by Apple, basically the ambient temperature the room the Mac is in should be. When I navigate in Chrome, each time I load a page, the CPU spikes like 10 degrees. Storage: 60-65C for the HDD’s and 70C for the SSD’s. If I don't use it it just sits arount 95✬, it's crazy. Using Skype with my webcam activated pushes the CPU temperatures from 60 degrees to over 80 using the fans at 100% via Macs Fan Control. Since Apple doesn't publish every single change to an operating system update, anything beyond what is said on the update page is pure speculation.For some reasons I'm now working in a 13' MacBook Pro (Early 2015) with a pretty simple i5-5257U (just 14nm dual core.) and its behavior CPU wise is pretty bad in terms of usage and temperatures. Apple may have in its operating system commands to increase the fan speed to improve processor performance at particular intervals that it didn't before. The going theory is about software is that it can not cause hardware to fail. If you cloned back your 10.6.3 backup you made before installing 10.6.4, it is entirely possible that your fan speed would remain the same, and so would your temperature. If there are any other side effects, they are purely coincidental unless you can prove otherwise. Apple: What is a normal cpu temperature for a MacBook Pro (13-inch, Late 2011)Helpful Please support me on Patreon. Obviously Apple optimized OpenGL for other needs, and the authors of Steam and other software have not caught up. The only known bug that people have mentioned on the board for 10.6.4 is that developers of Steam games have difficulty with OpenGL, and others do too. You'll see apparent causal relationships without any idea where in the chain of events the cause exists, if at all. In other words, the software that reads that information is based on known sensors without known methods of really interpreting those temperatures and fan speeds.
