Geekbench 5 single-core 2225 points
A public Geekbench upload reported 2,225 single-core points on a QBM1250 with a Core Ultra 7 265T and 15.46GB of memory. Both the processor power class and memory differ from 1T9FW, so this result is not scored.

Peak boost was brief in the demonstrated workload
ShortCircuit shows clocks falling after the initial boost during its F1 24 workload in Performance mode. The reported behavior applies to that test and configuration; it is not a MiniPCBench sustained-performance score.

No internal GPU slot No discrete-GPU expansion
The Micro Plus chassis exposes M.2 storage and an optional rear I/O module position, not a graphics-card slot. An external GPU would require an optional high-speed module that is not included with this part.

Dial reduced fan noise during use
ServeTheHome demonstrates switching to the quiet power mode while the machine is running and reports an immediate reduction in fan noise. Its power discussion includes an attached monitor and is not a PC-only measurement.

Fan audible at a game title screen
ShortCircuit reports noticeable airflow noise at a game title screen, although the sound was less whiny than the reviewer expected. This is an observation of its review unit, not a standardized acoustic measurement.
ShortCircuit · 7:45 -
A second reviewer found most power modes quiet
Duvenox describes Eco and Gaming modes as barely audible and the fan as slightly audible at peak load in Turbo mode on his 128GB/2TB unit. This differs from ShortCircuit's impression. Their room conditions, firmware and workloads were not controlled for comparison.
