Apple fixes Mac Pro CPU overheating issues in early 2009 models
The mysterious Mac Pro error that caused Apple’s highest-end desktops to start glowing, vibrating and rip fillings from users’ teeth every time an MP3 was played has spurred Apple to release the Mac Pro Audio Update 1.0.
Unfortunately, it’s only available for Mac Pro (Early 2009) computers running Mac OS X 10.6.2. That leaves out a swathe of other Mac Pro owners who are also reportedly suffering problems, but hopefully, Apple will solve their audio-related CPU overheating issues soon, before their Mac Pros turn into miniature fusion reactors.
Anyone having CPU overheating issues on their Mac Pro tried the fix? How’d it work out for you?
