I was wondering, when playing games on Macbook pro with eGPU will it run cooler or hotter if I were to add an external monitor? There are some discussion about the new MBP 15 having issues with heating and throttling when playing games. So.... my solution was to add a eGPU (1080ti) with a monitor. Of course I will also have to RUN windows boot camp with this type of GPU. So.... if I were to add an external monitor, what will happen with the performance??
 
it runs cooler. my 2016 15” mbp with egpu connected to a 4K monitor used to run much cooler that I didn’t hear the fans.
