I just got my second burn on my stomach in as many years. WTH is going on? It was so hot when I woke up I have a ring on my stomach. My girlfriend couldnt touch it becuase it was to hot to handle.
Nothing was blocked on the computer, all vents are open on the back etc.. Why call it a laptop if its not able to be in your lap without it burning you. Can someone please help with this?
MacBook Pro (15-inch Late 2011), iOS 9.3.2

Were you sleeping with the computer on your stomach? Yes, vents could have been blocked by that.

Do not sleep with a computer on your stomach. (I don't, even if the MBP turned off)
Ciao.
Again, if you read my posts it doesn't matter if the laptop is on my person or surface.
I'm guessing youre not reading the post or these comments are coming from Apple.
Does it have a dGPU?
Operating temps for correctly running Macs are the same, using them directly on your body is not recommended, dGpu or otherwise
Not having a dedicated GPU will force the CPU-integrated GPU to work harder which can cause the system to slow down to save heat.
Use it properly and the dedicated GPU serves a purpose.
