Thermal Pad ‘Mod’ Makes M2 MacBook Air Faster Than 13″ M2 Pro
This sounds like it's the same thing as the thermal pad mod for the M1 MacBook Air.<p>On the upside, you get better sustained performance and it lasts nearly just as long as the Pro, from what I recall. On the downside, it elevated the temperature of the backside aluminum to a high enough temperature to be able to cause burns (something like 80-90C). Not a huge issue if you always use it on a table or something, but if you truly use it as a 'lap' top, it'll be quite unpleasant.
