Any MBP with Fantel chips (brand new, no dust) is so quick to just gun it with the fan noise - slack, chrome, electron apps, second monitor.

I think I would rather take a small performance hit and some heat than have Apple quick to pull the trigger with a fan blasting noise as I’m trying to focus (if yield comparable stats).

Will wait for more info. If this chip is really that much more efficient hopefully we are back to the good old days where MBP fan is tolerable. Otherwise I’m all in on Air

I think the fan noise you experience is not Apple's fault, but Intel's fault.

well, my very powerful laptop barely every gets any noise. Most of the time it is silent until I am compiling something. It is of course apples fault as their cooling is suboptimum

Is Apple's cooling suboptimum or is Intel's TDP suboptimum?

"Make it thicker and heavier" is apparently not the answer that Apple was looking for from Intel.

Thin and light Wintel PCs are known for having a lot of thermal issues too.
