Apple’s Hot Books
The new M2 chip made its debut in the MacBook Pro in mid-July, and early tests found its cooling is struggling to cope. The 13-inch M2 MacBook Pro has a single fan and, under extended load, the M2 chip can reach over 100 degrees, triggering thermal throttling. This saves your silicon but leaves you with a sluggish rig. The 13-inch M1-powered MacBook Pro gets toasty under similar loads, but at least avoids being held back.
