Does anyone have a comparison of the early 2013 rMBP heat vs the new 2015? I am thinking about getting the new one, as my early 2013 model seems to run increasingly hot as it ages.

Its about 65c with just internet browsing and facetime, too hot to keep on my lap. I also would like the extended battery life of the newer model.

I have a late 2013 one and have noticed it heating up more as it ages too. Have you done a factory reset at all? I'm thinking about doing one and seeing if that'll do anything.
