The reported problems with fans/temps seem widespread, but I've personally experienced none of that. I have the i9 with the mid-range GPU option and I'm using four external monitors. I run it exclusively in clamshell mode, and perhaps that's less prone to problems. All I can say is I've had zero problems with it, and whatever noise the fans might make I haven't heard them above the sound of my desktop tower's fans (which admittedly are set to "hurricane wind tunnel testing" level). Bottom line, my experience with the new MacBook is its really damn fast and rock solid.
