Hey ducky1000!

Yes too much heat can cause board warping, or kill the internals. However, your MacBook should not be over heating. First step is to make sure that it has plenty of space to ventilate where you use it. If you have stuff all around it and there is no room to breathe then that can cause over heating. The MacBook doesnt have a fan so it needs to be in a good environment. If you are still having problems, reset your SMC How to reset the System Management Controller (SMC) on your Mac - Apple Support if you are still having problems you will want to take it into an Apple Store.
