Is the MacBook Pro 16 overheating with an external monitor?
My brand new MacBook Pro 16″ is overheating when connected to an external monitor. CPUs are normally around 50°C, but with an external monitor (HDMI over USB-C) they go to 90-100°C. The fans are running loud constantly and the bottom of the laptop is very hot when you put your hand on it. If you disconnect the monitor, it cools down.

The same monitor was previously connected to a 2013 MacBook Air (i7) and there were no heating issue whatsoever (it would get hot only when doing extremely intensive CPU work). The temperature on the left speaker is 40C (104F) and the temperature of the USB-C adapter’s steel case is 45C (113F).
Why is the bottom of my MacBook Pro so hot?

Is the MacBook Pro hotter than the 2016 model?
The representatives in the Apple store (where I was today, buying a new HooToo adapter, keyboard and mouse) confirmed that the 2017 MacBook Pro models “run hotter” than 2016 models (whatever that means, really). IMHO, Apple poorly engineered cooling of this device for (some of) it’s expected usage patterns.
