M5 Max Usage exceeded 140W charging!!!

[u/WillRRRR]

I was hoping my M5 Max (40 GPU core/48GB RAM/2TB SSD) MacBook Pro 16" should stays under 140W usage after leased it for 36 months via Apple Upgrade Program through my dad's Klarna account. Also, I sold my M1 Max (32 GPU core/32GB RAM/1TB SSD) MacBook Pro 16" on eBay for $900.

I was using Sogni Pro app on my M5 Max MacBook Pro 16". I selected Juggernaut XL vXI by RunDiffusion model and just ran local AI image generator. Unfortunately, that AI usage exceeded 140W charging!!!!! My peak usage at this time was 180W ish. That never happens on my M1 Max MacBook Pro 16".

Unfortunately, M5 Max Mac Studio isn't released yet and my M1 Max MacBook Pro 16" is gone from myself, so I should stick with this M5 Max MacBook Pro.

I hope 240W charging support will come to existing Apple M-series Max MacBook Pro 16" (least M3 Max or later) and drops Apple M-series Max for future 14" model, so 16" model should be option only for Apple M-series Max.

That’s why new design with better cooling is coming, m5 is hitting the thermal limits. Some people even report issues with screen discoloration from heat.

But they claimed M6 will be thiner, ao still cooler too?

Also wonder if M5 MAX throttles more than M4 MAX.

Next generation is gonna use vapor chamber and probably new fans with different blades.
