I started up with 2 and 3 held down and began to perform the Rember, the RAM testing software along with iStat, the temperature check widget. The question is, how high can the CPU temp get on this thing before damage is done? It still went up to 170 pretty fast and the fan was spinning 2000. Is that ok, or should I just shut down and pull one of the chips?
