Hey, so I'm trying to use my MacBook Pro with the lid open with an external 1080p monitor connected through a dock. For some reason my Macbook becomes extremely hot and according to MacsFanControl it remains around 70C while light browsing on Safari. Is this normal? The fans don't seem to kick in even at 80. I recently reset SMC too.
