Doing heavy compute workload and all 8 cores and GPU cores in heavy use 99% Mini is dead silent The office temp is 79F And the Mini is cool to the touch as well nor do I feel hot air coming out the back. This Mini is just dead silent. Yet my computations are finishing quickly.
All this is happening and the computer still feels snappy and fast. Intel mini would sound like a blowdryer and get hot and computer choppy. Not this M1 Mini.
