Mac Studio gets very hot in sleep-mode

Mac Studio gets very hot in sleep-mode. This is a problem. It costs a lot of power. Last time Apple saying about use 100% green energy in data-centers.... now, possible, i know how....! My question is - Passably ( just in theory ) if WE paying the cost of power for apple servers computing? And if "just IF" no, as we still pay for this big issue, and apple know about this (old) issue.


1 year before question from apple forum-:

" Mac Studio gets very hot in sleep-mode. Do you have any tip? This is a problem. It costs a lot of power and we will pay rogue stats. "


This way i ask if apple steal power from our houses? ( i mean many - computing of servers workload on our hardware, and is biggest cost in industry ). Because my NEW mac studio is very hot when I not in my office and this is a night.... a strange coincidence is't it? that brought up this question. and so it has been for quite some time.


Remember is just a question and not accusation ( for now ).

A Mac Studio runs very cool even under load. You can go into your Utilities folder and activity monitor to see what is running. You may have some program running but I doubt it would cause the heat issue. You may have a hardware issue with your Mac like the fan not operating correctly. You can also disconnect from your internet and/or server and see if you run cooler. Apple is not doing anything during at night that would cause the heat issue.

“A Mac Studio runs very cool even under load” - it’s true, and I am impressed. but the problem is hot computer in deep night when I not touch him like two or three days and I am physically in other place. In this case cooler not work (of course) and computer look like in sleep mode but because it’s hot I understand it make some work.

I think something must be running or failing during sleep.

No since in that case. It’s not a server, DB etc. ( New computer )

Sleep mode actually exist exactly for fast starting , Apple computer starts very slow from full restarting. Every laptop, PC and phone can sleep with no problems, including my macbook which i so love❤️ . same problem with my apple tv, not so hot like mac studio but worm (when sleeping). Maybe the problem with power adapters which need chanting work mode when computer in sleep mode, and cullers are off. But because it’s happening only wen i’m not in same place (i use apple watch an iphone with location sharing on), i think my mac studio do some work. for more context: cloud and desktop synchronization is completely ready and network (it’s turned on in sleep mode settings) can’t be so impactful.

And since I'm not a hater oh Apple, and tired of Samsung bugs (especially in the app of my bank that might not work after each update for a month or more, I bought a bunch of apple gadgets in a very short time (transferred the whole family from Samsung to apple), and was pleasantly surprised that apple tests applications before uploading to the market and they work perfectly. There are few comments on the system and in general I really like apple products. I sincerely love this company and recommend it to everyone! I hope my post about mac studio will be perceived as an objective criticism and a question and not an evil hate. after all, it will not be pleasant if it is not corrected or reported an error in the hardware so that people know about it and do not spend energy for nothing. And yes, it may well be that the reason is something else and apple is not to blame. I'll take the measurements again, compare them with the same machines of friends and i’ll write out it here. Good luck to everyone!
