I have not experienced this, but one would hope that the computer would do
this. Of course, first enabling energy saving functions like turning off
throttled cpu's …
Generally, my Macintosh's don't even start the fam unless I have VM's running.
Best wishes,

Hi there folks,
Just a quick question, if you over heat the MacBook Pro, will it shut it self
down like some of the other laptops out
Hi there, all Intel chips I’m aware of have such a cutoff. In fact all modern
microprocessors I’m aware of have this feature. Certainly an I5 will be fine
and if anything less warm than an I7 do to the power requirements.
You should be good to go.

Hi tgere,
Does the I5 also have the thermal cut off? That is all I have, though no
problems here.
Warm regards,

I know my old HP ProBook 4510S use to do so whenever it got to hot.

There is a thermal cutoff built in to the I7 as well as one on the battery.
You should be good to go. Just remember that MacBook 15 tends to get very
toasty. I brought it up to 16 virtual machines the other day each dedicated
with a core and between 256 and 512 MB and the fan never shut off
