I have a 2018 MacBook Pro. It's a 13 inch with i7 and 16gb of ram. It has the Intel iris plus graphics 655.

I am looking to get two displays and want bigger displays at 27 inches. I'm looking at some 4K displays at that size.

I know the technical specifications indicate my MBP can handle two 4K displays but I'm interested in hearing from people who have real experience with this setup. I don't do heavy video editing (or edit video often) but do use my laptop for programming with Xcode and Visual Studios.

Does anyone use two 4K displays using a similarly equipped MBP? How does the MBP do?
 
I have a 32" LG plugged in via a usb-c hub\displayport running 3840x2160 4k@ 60hz as my primary display and a 4k hdmi 43" LGTV running at 3840x2160 4k @ 60hz

the fans run a LOT not sure if i should get an external GPU or what.
