macbook air 2020 heat
Bought 2020 MacBook Air ( i3core 8 GB RAM stock model ) from apple education store around two weeks ago and it arrived a few days ago.
When I use it for Skype video meetings for classes the fans go full speed in less than 5 mins and temperature burns to more than 90C for CPU and more than 95C for the GPU. Keyboard is also very warm to touch in central areas. I already have no apps running in the background and the MacBook is on a table without obstructing the vent.
Same thing happens when I play war thunder (already on minimum graphics), both CPU and GPU temperature go above 95C in two or three minutes, the GPU even stayed on 100C for a few occasions.
The heat is understandable on war thunder given it's a game but is there something wrong with my Mac as its brand new but Skyping already quickly runs up the temperature? Also sometimes CPU temperature goes to 70-80C even when I'm only running safari and Spotify/YouTube, and I already only run a few tabs at a time.
Will this high heat damage my computer, especially when it's constantly hitting that temperature because I have to use Skype for online classes almost daily? Also, what's the expected CPU temperature under light use (only safari/whatsapp + spotify) or at rest?
