Why modern laptops are abandoning coolers and how this affects heating and speed

Not so long ago, fanless laptops seemed like niche devices: they were bought only by those who valued absolute silence rather than speed. It was believed that passive cooling could not cope with the heat generated by the processor, which meant that the performance of such laptops would be low. However, in recent years the situation has changed dramatically. The market has seen models that combine silence, compactness, and enough power for everyday tasks. This is not just a trend, but the result of significant changes in the approach to hardware design and processor architectures.
