I'll have to take a closer look, but unfortunately the fan on my new NUC7I7BNH (with Windows 10 installed) won't stop working. I tried a BIOS update (
https://downloadcenter.intel.com/product...), but unfortunately that didn't help either. Changing the fan mode in the BIOS to QUIET didn't help either. The only negative thing about the PC, unfortunately.
The fan supplied with the Intel NUC models generally provides just enough cooling for home office solutions with screen resolutions up to 1080p and not high processor performance. It is therefore generally too small ex works for higher requirements - let alone 4k UHD resolutions!
Those who want to avoid the problem of the loud fan and unleash the full flavour of the NUC: urgently need another cooling solution!
The high-quality and fanless aluminium chassis from Akasa, whose size/type varies depending on the NUC model, serve as an example.

However, you have to remove the mainboard in an "upgrade procedure" and integrate it into this aluminium case.
I am the owner of 5 NUCs myself and have had no "overheating" problems since such installations for each model.
