Normal office workers giving presentations while sharing video in a conference room over HDMI while simultaneously streaming the meeting over Zoom will absolutely push the thermal limits within five minutes.
- abadpoli 3y agoAn M3 won’t even come close to breaking a sweat doing all of those things. Hell, add in multiple intensive browser tabs, a few large Excel sheets, and VSCode open to a large Rust project with rust-analyzer running and still, the processor will hardly even get hot. I’ve done all of this on an M2 with zero problem whatsoever.

- xbar 3y agoThis has been my experience. My 15" M2 Air has never gone off the deep end on these tasks. Cool and quiet during streaming and heavy multitasking. To be fair, I felt compelled to spend hundreds of dollars extra on 24GB and 1TB to address the swapping and IO constraints that exist at the 8G/256GB price point.
