hmmm.. i recently thought of reformating my mac to clean out everything to get a brand new feel.. but i cant seem to find anything much about it on the net, why is that so? is there like another solution rather than re-installing the OS?

I did a test to compare having the thermapak and without... using CPUTest with big-FFT's and 2 instances (coz dual core). 11 minutes each. fan running at max approx 5900RPM.
Guess what? No difference in the reported temperatures. Haha.

Nevertheless, while playing COD4, there was an obvious difference in the temperature felt on the aluminium case and keyboard. CPUTest only stresses the CPU and RAM but does nothing to the GPU. With all 3 maxed out during gaming, it gets real hot. While this isn't any scientific test, at least I could feel it and I'm satisfied.

sometimes it's for torrenting.. sometimes I just leave it on standby..
I've seen reviews on the thermapak showing that there is only approx 4~6deg C improvements from the notebook point of view but if it's on the lap, then there is a great difference..

has anyone got beachballing very frequently on their 13" uMBP?
i got this annoyed me since i got my 1st time mbp software updates, and i have forgotten to unchecked the firmware 1.7 so just let it installed and now i have tried to reset the PRAM and it didnt work on my case. can we install/replace the previous firmware on my HDD?

im not sure , once i got my mbp, straight updated the EFI1.7 .

i guess so, was thinking to swap it back to the stock hdd.
i got it very often when browsing firefox.

Thanks for the info. Might just get one soon.. the only problem is there is no retailer selling this except for one guy in this forum..
