QuietFlow cooling design

Three built-in fans and a dual vapor chamber design ensure ultraquiet and efficient cooling. NUC 15 Performance dynamically adjusts fan speed based on real-time temperature and system workload, ensuring optimal cooling for any scenario. Chassis design has also been optimized for enhanced airflow and ventilation, keeping internal temperatures down and reducing the risk of overheating. This helps ensure stable performance, even after hours of use under heavy load. Additionally, the low-noise design of NUC 15 Performance enables users to focus on tasks like data analysis, video editing, or virtual meetings in relative silence.
