MacBook Pro M5 Max screen discoloration under high load
💡Local LLM developers: M5 Max MacBook Pros may suffer screen damage under extreme thermal loads.
⚡ 30-Second TL;DR
What Changed
Discoloration occurs during LLM inference and high-load tasks
Why It Matters
This hardware limitation could affect developers running local LLMs on Apple Silicon. Thermal throttling or potential hardware damage may occur during prolonged inference sessions.
What To Do Next
Monitor your M5 Max core temperatures using 'Asitop' or 'TG Pro' when running local LLMs to avoid reaching the 100°C threshold.
Key Points
- •Discoloration occurs during LLM inference and high-load tasks
- •Issue localized to the display area above the device interface
- •Independent of screen hinge angle
- •Linked to chip temperatures exceeding 100°C
