Title: I bought a MBP Retina 16gb with AMD M370X a few months ago. When I bought it, it was fast and snappy. Now during the summer the fans won&#x27;t stop, crappy OSX kernel_task throttles the cpu with no way of turning it off and after a few hours regular programming use it needs a reboot because everything runs at a crawl despite only about 4gb mem used.<p>I don&#x27;t know if it&#x27;s the laptop, or El Capitain, but I&#x27;m done. Reinstalled osx from scratch, reset the both rams, even tried the 3 different methods of killing acpi but it made no difference. This laptop was a complete waste of money.<p>I want a lapop of similar spec - the monitor in particular was fantastic, I&#x27;ve heard good things about the Thinkpad t450 and the Lenovo carbon, are there others, what are your experiences with them?
