Technically fanless, we still consider Frore System's AirJet technology to be some type of active cooling (air flow is provided by vibrating membranes). The first commercially available mini PC featuring this innovative cooling solution will be the $499 ZOTAC Alder Lake-N powered ZBOX PI430AJ later this year. We're skeptical to say the least.
"ZOTAC's COMPUTEX 2023 booth will showcase a live demonstration of the world's smallest Mini PC equipped with the revolutionary AirJet® solid-state active-cooling solution. This groundbreaking mini-PC will be the first product of its kind in the world to feature the revolutionary technology by Frore System.
The two AirJet Minis inside the PI430AJ can remove a significant amount of heat with its rapid airflow. That, coupled with the AirJet Minis' small size and silent operation makes them ideal solutions for raising thermal limits and boosting performance without compromising form-factor. Taking advantage of the newfound possibilities enabled by AirJet, the ZBOX PI430AJ boasts superb performance when compared to PCs of similar form-factor, with an Intel Core i3 processor, 8GB LPDDR5 memory, M.2 SSD storage slot and more — all within a tiny, pocket sized PC."
