Possible GPU overheating, getting really hot and shuts off
So my macbook pro is overheating. I have taken it apart and reapplied thermal paste. It will turn it self off due it being so hot right above the keyboard. I will have to unplug it and let it die so it will cool down. I am thinking maybe its the fans not spinning fast enough. or not conducting heat very well. I might be thinking my graphics card is going out. I am not doing anything that graphically intense so I do not know what the issue could be. But it has happened 3 times and it turns on just fine once it cools down. Also the battery says its needs to be serviced so i have a new battery coming in later this week so maybe that is the problem.

To better diagnose your problem you really need something that shows the built-in thermal sensors and the fans. I recommend this great app: TG Pro. Download it & install it. When the system starts getting hot take a snapshot of the main window and paste it here for us to see.

I ran haven benchmark and the Gpu temperature got to about 89 degrees C and it shut it self off. But the fans did not rev up.

@nickshorty - Can we try TG Pro please! Click on the blue link above.
It will give you the full rundown of 'ALL' of the sensors and the fans RPM's
I don't doubt your cooking! The question is what is cooking? With the info I'm asking for I can aim you to what you need to address.

I will once it turns back on!

Wrap the system in a tight plastic bag pull as much air out as you can and put the system into the fridg for a few hours (not let it freeze!) That should buy you a bit more time. Use a second system to download and setup a bootable drive which has TG Pro setup and then using the 'Option' key to select the external drive
