| I recently installed an app to manually activate the fans on my MacBook Pro M1 Pro as I've never been able to trigger them over the past 4+ years. Just to check whether the fans even work (they do). |

Try using a Real Language with a Real Compiler, like C++ or Rust or Swift, and build decent-sized projects using all cores. (All joking aside, this is why I have a MacBook Pro. Compilation easily hits the Air’s thermal limits and the performance boost on the Pro with its fan is impressive.) | |

| I left my Mac Studio running at 100% CPU on all cores for 14 hours, and the case ended up noticeably warm to the touch. It is possible! |

| Try increasing to 10 cores. Works on my m3 pro. |

| Honestly m1 was very cool no matter what workload you threw at it but at this point m4 max does get pretty hot even with just web browsing. |

| ▲ | gpm 12 hours ago | parent [-] | | I've definitely had my m1 air get uncomfortably hot to touch - particularly right above the keyboard. (While doing developery things) | | |
