A vapour chamber combined with three fans and two exhaust air heat sinks is responsible for cooling. The vapour chamber has a thermal coverage of 44 per cent and should therefore ensure cooler components. The residual heat is channelled to the outside via the heat sinks. According to the manufacturer, passive cooling should be sufficient for low power requirements, such as when surfing the web or playing videos: In silent mode, the fans are switched off so that the laptop runs silently.
