Reviewer impression of fan noise
Robtech described fan noise on his 16GB/512GB A5 as low and unobtrusive, though audible. This is his impression of the reviewed unit, not a MiniPCBench noise score.

Aftermarket cooler and PSU did not fit unchanged
GucksTV reports that the attempted Noctua NH-L9i cooler and SilverStone 600W Flex ATX power supply would require modifications to fit. The reviewer found memory, SSD and Wi-Fi-card replacement straightforward. This concerns those attempted parts, not every aftermarket option.
