To change the fan-speeds, users need to authenticate with valid credentials of an user-account with admin privileges. So users can increase the minimum RPM speed of the fans to release and dissipate more heat and thus cool down the system. However, in order to protect and note to damage the computer or notebook, you won’t be able to set the minimum speed to a rate which is under Apple’s defaults. smcFanControl let users set the minimum speed for each built-in fan individually. SmcFanControl is one of the such fan speed control utility, to cool down MacBook (Pro).

There are a few GUI (graphics user interface) based utility software that can help MBP and MacBook (and MacMini) users to control and adjust the speed of the fan cooler. If your Mac system temperature is too high, Mac users can adjust and modify the fan speed to higher speed in order to make the Mac machine runs cooler at lower temperature. Other than CPU operating temperature, CoreDuoTemp also displays indicators of CPU frequencies, CPU usage, and features multiple temperature unit ☏, ☌ or K.

To check and monitor the Intel-based Mac OS X computer operating temperature, Mac users can download and install the freeware app CoreDuoTemp, which is also a menubar application with CoreDuoTemp Widget. CPU fan is important part of CPU cooler system, together with heat-sink, thermal paste and etc, so if the fan RPM speed is not fast enough, the cooling system can’t dissipate the heat emitted and generated by Intel processor fast enough, and the CPU may get too hot till affect its performance or worse, stop working altogether.
The hot CPU is due to the slow fan speed that are set to run up to a certain RPM (revolutions per minute) limit. I did a test recording with OBS and after 10 minutes, the temperatures remained below 70 degrees celsius, which is great.Apple Intel-based computer such as Mac mini, iMac, MacMacBook and MBP (MacBook Pro) operating temperature of the processor can run to very high degree and hot. In those cases, bumping the speed manually between 3500-3800rpms is the sweet spot between keeping the temperatures down, and the noise under control. I've noticed that below 2500rpms the fans are almost impossible to hear, but obviously at that speed their not able to keep temperatures down if you're running heavy tasks at the same time. Macs Fan Control is a free program that allows you to set the speed of the fans in your mac manually. This encoder should be better optimized for Macs as I've noticed a slight reduction in fan noise, although I might say that the generated files are twice as large (around 120MB per 5 minutes instead of 40MB using the default h264 software encoder). In OBS, go to Preferences > Output > Select Output Mode Advanced and in the recording tab, choose the Apple VT H264 Hardware Encoder. I do however enable it whenever I need to export a video for example. Not to mention that it will also increase your battery life.
Disabling Turbo Boost will have an impact on performance, but for everyday use and some tasks, like recoding with OBS, I think it's worth it. Just install it, and disable turbo boost using the icon in the top bar. But there is a tool that allows you to disable the Turbo Boost in the processor, and that's Turbo Boost Switcher.

My Macbook Pro 16 has an Intel i9 with 8 cores, and an AMD 5500M graphics card and when both are operating at its peak they generate a lot of heat. So I decided to search a little bit and found a few tricks and configurations that, when combined, gave me very good results.

I've been using Zoom + OBS to record my meeting in full HD and the combination of both resulted in the fans going crazy, to the point that you can actually hear them during the video.
