[QUOTE="jakobnorris, post: 1782957, member: 397813"] I use Monity to track. and yeah for sure maybe I had something opened that used a lot of power. Im glad to hear that the area around the Touch Bar usually gets hot and that its normal. I was just worried if this was an issue I had, I haven't had a laptop for 4 years so I don't really know what to expect. next time it heats up I will check and see whats causing it. But every time I've checked it looks like only 10 % of the CPU is being used? I read on another forum that the ''Automatic Graphics Switch'' under energy save, being Off would make it less hot. im not sure if this is the case. [/QUOTE]
