MacBook Pro i9 overheating issues

Hello, my 2,3 GHz 8-Core Intel Core i9 with AMD Radeon Pro 5500M 8 GB and 64 GB ram seems to be getting more and more overheating issues. I just upgraded to Ventura, did a clean install. Already did some reset commands.

Overheating occur with medium heavy task like Lightroom and then simultaneously copying things from one hard drive to another. Basically now the laptop is almost unusable. Which I regret, I only have It a little over two years now.

I am aware M1 and M2 do a better job, but this is current situation is out of control.


Any help would greatly be appreciated.

Thanks

Ronald

If your Mac is Overheating....


Get this Mac Serviced...

Contact Apple, and setup a Genius Bar Appointment or see an AASP (Apple Authorized Service Provider) in your local area.


A. Contact Apple:

  • Contact Us - Choose Locations
  • Proceed from there as Necessary
  • NOTE: Due to the Coronavirus Pandemic, calls are taking a bit linger to get through. And, that makes sense, because many are at home working out-of-the-house or are taking classes over-the-web, this they have more time on their hands to contact Apple Support. So, it might take a bit to get through to Apple Support. But, just stay on the line, and someone will be with you.


Or...


B. Contact an AASP: 

  1. Go Here: Find Locations - Apple Authorized Reseller
  2. Click: Service & Support
  3. Enter: your location information
  4. See: if there is an AASP nearby
  5. Contact: an AASP that shows up, and find out more about the services that they offer to fix the Mac
