Pretty sure it is AMD with Ryzen 7 1700 or Ryzen 7 2700 both rated at 65W TDP

  I have a Ryzen 1700 at home, and I am very happy with it. The fan that came with it runs very quietly even under heavy load. On workloads that utilize all cores, frequency will drop to 2-2.5 GHz after a while, but for those, the number of cores/threads tends to have a bigger impact on throughput than clock frequency / performance per core.

    Aww thanks - for some reason I had forgotten there are Ryzen 7s at 65 W and was only looking at the 5s...

      I was very happy to discover the 1700 back then, because I wanted an 8-core machine really badly (not that I really need one, but hey, I only upgrade my desktop every ~5 years), but I did not want an electric radiator. ;-)

  The Ryzen 2700 is a very nice improvement over 1700, reaches higher frequencies and turbos better. The cooler that comes with the 2700x at least is very nice too and silent.
