Ok so what the actual fuck is going on, I think I am done with Apple products for good
A few weeks ago the logic board failed on this (known issue, covered by Apple). Got it replaced, no problem. Laptop comes back ready to go.
I turn it on, instantly as soon as I login, I notice the laptop is very warm. I mean VERY warm. At this point I haven't done a thing, I've just logged into the OS.
I installed smcfancontrol and the temps are sitting at 55 degrees literally after I have turned the machine on. Apparently this EXCEEDS the maximum temperature that the machine can actually handle.
The question is, what the fuck is going on? The fans work fine, I can hear them and turn them up in smc.
Did the logic board fail because of heat, or is there something else causing this? What the fuck could be causing a heat problem when the machine isn't even in use?
The thing is I need this laptop to complete a recording project I am doing, then I can sell it. I just hope nothing happens between now and then, since there is only 1 month left on the Apple replacement program, and then they cut it off.
WHAT THE FUCK MAN

If the board has been repaired it is likely the fans and heatsinks etc. were all removed/replaced. Perhaps some technician hasn't applied thermal compound or hasn't properly tightened down a heatsink. Dunno. You would have to open it and look inside for any signs.

It's Sierra. Go back to el capitan there is no need to be on sierra

Since you just got it replaced, you should be able to take it back, tell them what's going on.

What kind of laptop is that? Pic related my HP almost 3 years old and it often hits 80-90C when I am gaming. Never had any issues.

MBP actually has a shitton of sensors (pic related)
Maybe OP wasn't referring to CPU core 1-2, which are the ones that get real hot (they go up to 105C when encoding on iMovie)

I thought it was common knowledge that OSX is terribad at handling thermals, partly on purpose because a proper heat management would mean their stuff would either throttle all the way back to gameboy color levels or run 24/7 on full blasting fans even when idle.

>55 degrees max
WTF? smcFanControl reports the CPU speed and that should have a max of 100C.
If mds is indexing shit because of changes made during the repair then the computer will run warm until it's complete.
