2011 i7 macbook pro getting VERY hot after 8gb ram and OWC data doubler install


hi everyone,

completed install of owc data doubler along 120 gb sad. installed 8gb of ram in place of stock 4gb.

computer running great, seems hot well. on top left side of keyboard , on left speaker.

cpu temp right around 80c of time...even when doing pretty nothing (web, itunes, etc.)

normal? fans aren't going out of control , computer runs great. worry heat used able use computer on lap no problem, , hot keep there.

in advance help!!!
 

usually cpu temp relates directly cpu usage... open activity monitor , find out % of cpu using. on mbp when i'm using 4 virtual cores (2.66 i7) can on 100c, 80 isn't bad unless doing @ idle wrong.
