I have 2 n100 boxes and none of them have fans at all. Set at 9W and never had a problem so far.

- bayindirh 2y agoInteresting. All models I have found had fans. It’s easy to dissipate 9 watts with some clever design.
- magicalhippo 2y agoFrom what I know it seems the router-oriented designs are mostly fanless, like this[1] semi-random example. [1]: https://www.aliexpress.com/item/1005004360072281.html https://www.aliexpress.com/item/1005004360072281.html
- bayindirh 2y agoThanks, probably I missed them due to skipping router/multi NIC systems during shopping.
- mianos 2y agoI stand corrected, one is like that thing, no fan The other is a T9 mini PC. It is really small with 2 network ports. It apparently has a fan. I have never heard it. Which is significant to me because I also have some NUCs and those are the only fans in my office and they are annoying in the silence.
