Dren Bernard Posted December 17, 2014 Share Posted December 17, 2014 I have high spec'd Macbook Pro 2014 model. I have always used Phoenix and Firestorm but even with this powerful mbp it runs hot and fans are audible all the time. Is there a viewer out there that is better suited to the Mac OS system? many thanks Dren Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Alyse Benelli Posted December 17, 2014 Share Posted December 17, 2014 Can you tell me if it is anything like Phoenix because that is the Firestorm viewer I prefer and have noticed my brand new mac running hot, fan loud, etc. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Perrie Juran Posted December 17, 2014 Share Posted December 17, 2014 Have you considered throttling your Max Frames Per Second? I don't know what kind of performance you get in a busy SIM but doing this can reduce your energy consumption and thus your temperatures over all. There have been a few threads about this and someone may have the links handy. I don't right now myself. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
