High temperature on MacBook Pro m2 max 14

hello, a couple of days ago I bought a macbook with a 14 diagonal on an m2 max.

The temperature of the cores rises to 100 degrees +, but the fans hardly move (maximum 2500 rpm on the right).

Is this normal or is there some kind of marriage?

MacBook Pro 14″, macOS 13.2

MacBook Pro 2017 Overheating Hi, I just recently purchased this Mac and updated it to MacOS Ventura 13.2 but was wondering why it started heating up after a few seconds of use earlier when I first began using it? And as I updated it, it sounded like the fans were at full speed— not to mention it was very hot. Is there anything I can do to fix this? Thank you.

High temperatures MacBook Pro m2 pro 16 Hello, So I have recently bought a MacBook pro 16 with an m2 pro chip. My concern is that whenever I run an intensive render, my temps rise to over 100 degrees celsius, and sometimes even to 108. I don't understand why my fans are staying at around 2500 rpm when the CPU is at 102 degrees or over. Why don't they rump up more to cool down the chip? Is it safe for it to work at temps like that?

Is this temperature normal? Hello, I recently purchased a macbook pro 14 inch 2023 M2 Pro base model. (16gb ram, 512gb storage). My problem is that when i run my program, like i start my nx monorepo (node js project) then the CPU get a big load so it will run at 100% for like 10-20 sec until the build is completed and while its running my CPU temperature goes up high to like 100 and even 110 celsius. I don't know if its normal, but what worries me is that the coolers doesn't spin up to their maximum but they stay at around 2600-3000, which is not really good at 110 celsius i guess. Here is a video: CPU overheats I'm checking the values with Stats app, not sure if its reads the real values, but the laptop keyboard and also the backplate is really hot, like i can't keep my hand on it.

I have the same issue. The chassis gets so hot around the palm rest I cannot even type, and the machine is 80% idle.
