    Hello everyone, I'm new to this forum. I just unboxed my new Macbook Pro 2019 15" i9 2.3Ghz, 560X, 16GB ram, 512GB SSD. As soon as the device accessed the disc I noticed the coil whine. It mostly sounds like scratching and high pitched whining. I've searched through this forum and found a...

    Reactions to Mac Pro 7,1 2019 [consolidate here?!]

    So many threads w/ reactions and commentary...wish it was all in one thread. Maybe we can pick one and migrate comments there? Or start here and copy/paste from other bits? I'd say probably not the "Waiting for Mac Pro 7,1" thread, just because it's got speculation going back so far... Anyway...

    With my former iMac I never bothered looking at things like temperatures and fan speeds. They said it just works, and it always did. But now in 2019 with all the stories about thermal throttling I wanted to see for myself if my new i9 iMac runs as smoothly as everyone says. I installed TG Pro...
