I know the fans in a MacBook Pro start generating a lot of noise when is using a lot of CPU or when is doing tasks that involve a lot of GPU, but recently my Macbook Pro fans start to turn too loud when I stop using it and display goes off, I mean when I'm not doing anything and only safari remains open without using plugins such as Flash.
What's going on?
MacBook Pro with Retina display, OS X Yosemite (10.10.3), Later 2014
Mavericks and later
Open Activity Monitor in the Utilities folder. Select All Processes from the View menu. Click on the CPU tab in the toolbar. Click twice on the CPU% column header to display in descending order. If you find a process using a large amount of CPU time (>=70,) then select the process and click on the Quit icon in the toolbar. Click on the Force Quit button to kill the process. See if that helps. Be sure to note the name of the runaway process so you can track down the cause of the problem.
Hi.
I check CPU use and nothing is consume more than 10%. But the Macbook fans still run faster when I stop using it for more than 10 minutes.
I did it but nothing change.
Why my Macbook Pro Retina 2014 fans become noisy when idle?
