Defected mac Posted on: 02.05.2013 by Patty Dauer Hi guys,i just bought a mac pro 10.8 2 days back. Is it normal for the mac to get luke warm within fifteen mins of usage and hot within an hour or is my mac defected?! Also my mac has a ram of 8gb. thought previously i was using a compaq with 2gb ram and now this mac doesnt feel as much faster. Like might just be a tad bit faster but no real upgrade i feel. Please help me out. | |

What's Onyx and clean...and how do i run that too? Thank you so much for the help.
This is a must use app. Cleans your mac right up. |
| Dannie Dimora 02.05.2013 | You said 2gb ram in the previous rig. Judging by that, the processor could have been an early core duo, or even a single core celeron. So an i7 with 8gb ram should be quite a lot snappier. Would it be a major PITA to reinstall cleanly osx? |

| Lilliana Perris 02.05.2013 | Also remember that that Harddrive in there be slow. If you want REAL speed...SSD is the way to go. Have you run Onyx and done a clean etc? Those specs should be pretty damn tight. |

Is that not gona happen anymore? because i loaded up an old dummy project which quite small though the cpu load showed a load of 15%.So im worried this too is gona start overloading. Am i not gona face any cpu overloading with the mac or should i expect that? |

| Lilliana Perris 02.05.2013 | Yeah, my Mac gets hot. Its as fast as it can be I guess. Its the power that is the difference I recon. |
