Q: MacBook Pro 15inch mid-2015 fan loud, running slow
So just yesterday, I noticed that my MacBook Pro is running a bit slower, and even when I am like watching a YouTube video or even just playing music off of iTunes or working on a paper, that the fan gets very loud and makes the performance go down quite a bit. Is there a reason for this? I have around 50% free space on my computer, and I really don't run more than 3 applications at a time. It never has done this since I got my computer, and it only started these issues yesterday. Is there anything I can do maybe like a factory shut down or turn off or something that takes the problem off? It also has moments where the fan is absolutely loud, where it is easily noticeable, and moments where the fan gets quieter and quieter until it is barely audible. Thanks for your help! Wasn't sure where to post this, it seemed most suitable in Power and Battery.
MacBook Pro (Retina, 15-inch, Mid 2015), OS X El Capitan (10.11.3)
