laptop gets too hot
Why does my MacBook Pro get so hot so quickly
MacBook Pro 13″, macOS 14.1
Generally speaking, all MacBook Pro/Air overheating issues can be brought down to these three.
1) Too much strain on Mac's CPU and graphics card.
2) Too many windows or browser tabs open, multitasking between several resource-consuming apps or tasks like video editing or gaming, outdated software, or malware.
You should use laptop cooler if you consider it's dangerous.
