The heat was also transfering through the USB cable to the MacBook's body. The USB-C - HDMI converter I've been using was getting very hot.Are such heating issues normal? Is there a way to limit GPU power usage or 'something'? This is certainly unexpected from my side.
#MAC PRO 2017 FAN NOISE HOW TO#
I saw possible solutions on how to adjust the Energy Saver not to use the external graphics card, but it seems that this is not the case for this type of Macbooks - at least, the settings are not present in the Energy Saver. I previously owned Macbooks and a Macbook Air and none of them exhibited such heating issues. It is even worse if the Macbook is charging at the same time (using the other available USB-C port). The adapter gets uncomfortably hot very quick and so does the chassis of the Macbook pro. This was not measured scientifically, but through iStat Menus current draw information. When monitor is connected, the current draw is apx 50% higher than what it is when monitor is not connected (regular browsing). The monitor is connected via USB-C - HDMI konverter. The fan is near silent (iStats report that it is at 1950 RPMs. The chassis around touchpad has 37C (99F). The temperature on the left speaker is 40C (104F) and the temperature of the USB-C adapter's steel case is 45C (113F). The same monitor was previously connected to a 2013 Macbook Air (i7) and there were no heating issue whatsoever (it would get hot only when doing extremely intesive CPU work). The notebook is performing fine, but when it is connected to the external Dell monitor (2560x1440 resolution), it gets uncomfortably hot. I have a recently bought a Macbook pro 13" - 2017 with two thunderbolt 3 ports. My question is about chassis temperature and overheating issues.
