Resolution to MBP 16” 2019 overheating?

anybody ever get any solutions or resolution on the overheating issue? I spent over 3000$ dollars on a machine that i’ve never been able to use for more than 10 minutes before it just gets super hot fans going full speed and nothing works. Totally and utterly useless. I paid for 64g of ram but might as well be 2g. I took it in and gave it to apple when i broke the screen once and when i got it back the fans just were on all the time full blast but still 10 minutes of use before useless. I don’t consider that a fix. So did apple just rip a bunch of people off? They must have known these were unusable pieces of garbage. Has anybody got anything out of apple on this issue?

MacBook Pro 16″, macOS 12.7

I would take it straight back and have Apple resolve the issue.

By far the easiest way to cause poor performance, instability, overheating and crashing is to install ANY third-party speeder-uppers, Cleaners, Optimizers, or Virus scanners, Bit Torrent, or a VPN that you installed yourself. 


Also, are you using external displays with this computer? that is know to cause the heat to ramp up quickly.


are you running any of that stuff?
