Apple released the new 2018 MacBook Pro PC with the new Intel Core i9 processor, increasing the maximum number of system cores from four to six to deliver sensational performance to users. However, early tests showed that the computer has a serious overheating problem, causing a sharp drop in processor performance.

Apple fixes the poor performance of the new 2018 MacBook Pro with a firmware update

Users of this new 2018 MacBook Pro began reporting reduced performance over the 2017 version with a quad-core processor, somewhat due to issues with thermal throttling of the new six-core Core i9 processor.

After almost a week of silence, Apple has released a firmware update that will offer users higher levels of performance under high thermal loads. Apple has blamed the problem on a bug in its thermal management system, where a missing digital key causes processor clock speeds to drop unnecessarily. The solution is available in macOS High Sierra 10.13.6, which is now available for download.

It remains to be seen if the new MacBook Pro will work more or less quickly thanks to this new update to the operating system. Fan noise could be affected by this update, if Apple has added a new fan speed profile for the system. There is also concern about whether Apple will allow the processor to reach higher operating temperatures, something that can negatively affect the life of the equipment.

Hopefully the new six-core MacBook Pro will be able to deliver its best performance with this new software update.
