54dB - dröhn

It's not a product you should use for stress testing all day long - that's the XMG U505's domain. The XMG C405 is a high-quality, versatile allrounder with a lot of potential power under the hood, with good build material and a great keyboard and display. If you need a lot of power in a small and relatively lightweight package and good upgrade options, the XMG C405 is one of the best choices you have. You just need to know what you are looking for.

The XMG C504 is actually not from Clevo, but from Gigabyte (P34).

Oh thanks, nearly missed that info. :)

It's strange because the cooling fans and heatpipes are arranged in the same way as in the Alienware 15. Too bad, it's still a turbo jet engine.

Speaking of alienwares, they aren't any better in this (jet engines on steroids ^.^)
I still have my 6.5y-old m570tu. The cooling is great, but unnecessarily noisy. I had to tune it (just slowed the cpu fan with a 0.7V diode)

But both build low-quality products, with bad keyboards and trackpads.

My m570tu has got a great keyboard, layout and touchpad. But that was made in the past. Now all suxx.

"Kompakter Kraftprotz" ?
I'd say "Compact turbine jet engine" with its 54dB. Seriously, does Clevo no more care about cooling? Only looking at the internal pictures, I can see the cooling system is sh*t.

This "sh*t" gets produced by Gigabyte, not Clevo...

The XMG C504 is actually not from Clevo, but from Gigabyte (P34). Needless to say, Gigabyte has not their cooling under control by means of bad noise. They produce rocket engines. Clevo on contrary has evolved withthe cooling int the P505 (even though 3 coolers are totally exaggerated) and the A505. I don't know their 14" model. though.
