It's not ideal, but I've found that disconnecting the external monitor helps a little (My understanding is that the external monitor engages discrete gpu which heats up the wrong bits of the laptop). I usually only have issues when sharing video - screen sharing seems fine.
Once the hairdryer kicks in, the Intel CPU will drop down to a quarter of its normal speed. (I replaced my personal laptop with an M1 for this reason.)
- iamben 4y agoI'm currently on the last Intel Mac. It's absolute trash. Worst Mac I've ever owned. I've been debating the M2 for a while, but feels like we're coming pretty close to a possible refresh. Never a good time, is there?! haha
