Many of these Macbook thermal mods use the case more aggressively as a heatsink, and can end up making the enclosure hot enough to burn you if used as a laptop.

- generj 4y agoThey probably could add some case temperature sensors and throttle once the case gets hot enough. Would still gain a lot of performance; outside of benchmarks most people don’t run their computers hard enough to need full boost for minutes at a time.
