I find that laying it upside down helps. ideal would be mounted vertically but I need all the ports. also I bought a cooling stand for it which works. so embarrassing. gently caress you jony.

closing a macbook makes it more or less airtight because the hinge blocks the ventilation in the back, I'm surprised you're even allowed to turn it on like that You're supposed to make tasteful desk art with it, like so:

the xps15 intakes air thru a gap between the keyboard and display and as a result when the display is closed, the gap is still open from the bottom.

Cocoa Crispies posted:"oh hey i have this laptop with a fancy retina screen, better use it on my desk closed so i can't see it" I have it hooked up to a 5k display (27”) and another, inferior non Retina display (24”). the built in 15” display is useless to me at my desk. r u ready to WALK posted:closing a macbook makes it more or less airtight because the hinge blocks the ventilation in the back, I'm surprised you're even allowed to turn it on like that nah, the new ones have the air intake and vent on the bottom edges, they’re unaffected by the hinge. putting the device upside down improves the airflow and also exposes the hottest part of the body to more air.
