Benchmarks: Temperature and Noise

Shoehorning a quad-core Intel CPU and GeForce GTX 1060 graphics into a 14in form factor is always going to be a challenge, yet the Aero 14 manages to cope reasonably well. The system does become noticeably warm when gaming, but the fans do a decent job of expelling heat and, to our pleasant surprise, noise output isn't obnoxious. The laptop is quiet enough when idle and though the fans can be heard clearly when either processor is placed under significant load, noise isn't likely to be a major issue during general work.
