So I've moved from my 2012 15" and I'm loving the new MBP but I'm curious about what the average running temps should be for typical usage that includes listening to some music (both MP3s and Spotify), watching Youtube vids, basic surfing (Brave with ~7 - 12 tabs open). I'll also note that I have turbo boot shut off.
I'm not experiencing any issues or anything that would cause me to raise an eyebrow. I'm merely curious as to what I should be seeing as far as average temps.
Thanks in advance!
 
I have a few tabs in Safari open, YouTube in Google Chrome (not playing), and Spotify playing in the background. It's at 62-66°C. Also connected to an external 4K monitor.
 
Mine's connected to an external Apple Pro XDR monitor in clamshell mode.
Usually hovers around 55-60 degrees C.
