I have a Mac Pro (Not Macbook Pro). It was working so good but recently when I touch its body it is too hot.

I checked the RAM, CPU and memory usage. all of them are below 70% so I can not find the root cause of the heating.

Does someone know how can I find its root cause?

  • Try something like smcFanControl (free, basic) or better in this instance, iStat Menus ($18 with 14 day trial, comprehensive) to see if you can at least track down what's getting hot.

If a computer is overheating it's likely to be a fan malfunction or the normal airflow being blocked for some reason, for instance if you installed third party components that it wasn't designed for, or installed components in different places than expected, that could be another reason.
