MacBookPro Retina (2015) overheats and fans kick in.
Hey guys. I bought a new MacBook Pro a few days ago. Here are some specs: 13-inch, early 2015
-2,7GHz Intel Core i5
-8GB 1867 MHz DDR3 processor
-Intel Iris Graphics 6100 1536MB
- OSX El Capitan
Everything works fine, it never gets hot and the battery also works fine. I've always played csgo on my iMac (from 2011) and everything works fine on the highest settings.. When I started csgo for the first time on this things the settings where automatically determined by csgo. Almost everything was on high, but csgo didn't ran smoothly. After I put every setting on 'low' it worked fine, but still just an FPS of 40 and it got very hot, so the fans kick in very hard. After searching a lot forums i can't really find a solution for this problem. Can someone help me, or is this normal?

GetNoScoped:That particular macbook ls slim so the heat has limited room to air out and that intel gpu is stressed as it was only made for light gameing , lf you don't have a cooling pad get one as it may improve cooling , the other option is expensive the macbookpro 15in as tiat model has a dedicated gpu and less likely to overheat other than that im sure what elese i can suggest other than to run bootcamp.
