Hello,

I have a early 2015 MacBook Pro Retina. Recently ive had fans spinning up to full speed while watching youtube videos or using Word. It seems really odd, that it goes full blast for 2-3 seconds when the processor isn't even being used that much. I checked the activity monitor while using these apps, and not more than 10% being used. I reset the NVRAM and SMC, yet still goes full blast, does anyone know why?
