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'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.
I don't know if it's the laptop, or El Capitain, but I'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.
I want a lapop of similar spec - the monitor in particular was fantastic, I've heard good things about the Thinkpad t450 and the Lenovo carbon, are there others, what are your experiences with them?
