Fan volume was my first thought as well. Although, I have to admit that AMD APU's are amazingly efficient. I recently prepped a SER8 with a Ryzen 7 8845HS as a workstation replacement for someone, and the thing is dead silent. Even at max load, you can barely hear the fan going.

According to specs, the AI370 has the same max TDP as the 8845HS, and even lower idle power draw. So I can believe these things are going to be disrupters in the industry.
