Just watched the YouTube video from the official channel, it seems need to install the driver before plugging in the hub. Will try tomorrow and share the result. Haven’t tested it yet

I noticed that when my mbp touch bar is connected to an external monitor, it is slightly warmer than usual around the keyboard area.
Is it normal that gpu or cpu is running higher than usual when connected to an external monitor?

Normal. i still have my 2015 MBP and it's even worst when it comes to heat. Thing would slow down when i connect a dual mons with 4k/60z setup due to excessive heat. It could cook an egg.

QUOTE(Boykidz93 @ Oct 9 2017, 12:56 AM) Welcome to the family. Trust me, at first few months, you will complaint and start wondering "why you buy this Mac". As, you may find lots of thing not compatible at first. Soon you will never go back to Window  Can you explain your last sentence? I am worried of this kind of issue as well.

Because you will get used to MacOs multitask, the smoothness of OS and battery life. When I look at window laptop, Oh! My GOD!! the resolution Just my personal opinion ya, no offence to Window users.
