Hi! I bought a new MacBook Pro 2017 13inch without Touch Bar a couple of months ago and alls been fine until recently its bee getting really hot on just basic surfing web, then once I connect it to a monitor it stays around 60 degrees mark. just wondering is this normal as it didn't use to be this hot.
Many Thanks!

Do you use the Chrome browser?

When browsing, do you keep many tabs open at once?

Do you have any "runaway processes" going on in the background? (open activity monitor and check CPU usage)?
 
no I stopped using chrome due to the resource hog, I have a probably 6 tabs open on average for a normal day and on the activity monitor its mainly just the programs im currently using that I can see, I can post a screenshot if that helps.
