when you guys were talking about fanless pc’s i thought you were including laptops, but i guess not.
desktop pc’s usually have fans. but some of the current modern laptops just have heatsinks and have low power circuitboards.
that’s what i’m using right now. the bottom of the laptop can get really hot sometimes, so i try to keep it elevated on something.

but as for ambient noise, the only noise comes from me typing on the keyboard, no fan noise because no fan.
i opened it up a few times to be sure, and there doesn’t seem to be any fan. or if there is on that i can’t find yet, it’s still quiet as can be.
