Mac Studio gets warm in Sleep-Mode

Yesterday my Mac Studio gets very hot in sleep-mode. Do you have any tip? This is a problem. It costs a lot of power and we will pay rogue stats.

How to fix my Mac mini heating up in sleep mode? When the device is in sleep mode it heats up a lot. Only after turning it on does it get cool. Is this normal? [Re-Titled by Moderator]

Mac Studios WARM when in sleep mode I have two base model Mac Studios, both have three studio displays attached to them, all are running the most current Mac OS and firmware, using the Apple thunderbolt cables that came with the displays. I have tried several different configurations with energy saver and when the computer is set to go to sleep… Fan spin down, displays turn off and the computer gets quite warm but when I wake it up and the fans kick on within about five minutes the display is dramatically cooler to the touch and if I've been using it for a couple of hours, it is truly cool to the touch. And has anyone else with this issue been able to fix it?

Mac Studio sleep issue Hello everybody, I bought Mac Studio in April and since then I have problem with sleep. When I put Mac Studio to sleep (Apple icon -> Sleep), fan turns off - so far, so good :-) Problem is, that Mac wakes up itself and I couldn't find a solution for this. Sometimes it wakes up in 20 minutes, sometimes in 2 hours, sometimes never until next day. Sometimes I put it to sleep, check it after a while and it's on and this repeats several times. I always put Mac to sleep in the evening - I wait till fan is stopped and Mac is on in about 50 % of mornings... If Mac is not on in the morning, the grill in the back of the Mac is warn before I wake it up, so it means that Mac is also doing something. Just for curiosity, I've check power consumption: Idle: 12 W All displays off: 8 W Sleep (fan is off): 7 W I would expect less than 2 W in Sleep mode. My hardware: Mac Studio - the basic one, just with 1 TB storage 3x Dell U2715H screens, 1x HDMI, 2x DP (all connected with USB cable too) Magic Keyboard Hama mouse (I tried to disconnect it before putting to sleep and there was no difference) UPS APC Back-UPS BE-650VA Mac is connected to the network using Ethernet and I have also connected speaker using 3.5mm jack. Wake for network access is disabled in settings. No wake up is scheduled. Do you have any idea, how to fix this issue? It's very annoying... Thank you very much in advance. Cheers, Sislik

Disable Computer Sleep and only let the Display(s) turn off after 10 or 15 minutes.

Then just leave it in that state or shutdown at the end of each day if power is a concern.
