I have Macbook Pro nTB 2017 and this thing get hot as hell when i'm using Premiere or encoding and it is only 15W TDP. Vent is spinning like crazy and i don't want to think what could be with 29 W TDP CPU or even 35W.

Twice the TDP, about twice the cooling (I don't know how heat pipe physics work and if this is linear, but roughly I'd assume). They probably both get similarly hot, it's not necessary that the higher TDP one gets hotter because it also has more cooling.

6 core + mobile 1080ti processor which Nvidia has out. Now that's a package I like for rendering on the go :) Razer has it's blade pro version. I assume they will upgrade it shortly to the desired specs.

Mine don'ts get as hot. Anyway is quite normal for being such portable. I also use eGPU when at home this help for sure.
[doublepost=1520343570][/doublepost]I don't get the hate about touch bar. It is super handy for me, word prediction, some software. It is just like having keys which changes. The only error in my opinion is about ESC key which should be mechanical imho.
