Great little unit, very happy with it for the price.Even when gaming, the noise is very quiet - more of a 'whoosh' of air, rather than the droning noise of a fan.Gaming performance isn't amazing, but it's good enough that I don't find myself thinking "Gosh, I wish I had a faster computer."Examples; Skyrim, Fallout 3, Minecraft, Factorio, all run fine in HD mode at 1680+ resolution.About 16 months into use, the unit completely failed. It was on a 1000va UPS, so safe from surges or brown-outs, so the cause is a mystery, however Intel's warranty program replaced the unit very quickly, and I had little to no drama after moving the RAM and SSD's over.Taking into account the failure, but then Intel's great RMA and warranty actions, this is still a 5 star.
