Hi all,
I recently replaced my MBA with a 16" MBP. I'm having a problem with it running hot when in sleep mode. It doesn't matter if I just close the lid or manually put it in sleep mode. I don't run any heavy programs, the most I do is play The Sims 4 on laptop mode with a lowest settings graphics. When I finish playing Sims I'll wait for it to cool down and let the fan stop running if it was, but when I put it in my sleeve it heats back up and the fan stats again. Even when I'm just browsing the web or typing in Word and it isn't hot when I put it in the sleeve it heats up and the fans start running. I've tried resetting the NRAM and SMC to no avail. I do usually leave my Magic Mouse on and in range of it. Could this be the problem? The only this that seems to prevent it is to shut down every time, which gets really annoying.

Any help is appreciated! :)
