Easierest to go fanless. No fans means no noise and no dust or cat hair 
being concentrated inside your computer. Fanless still benefits from 
temperature sensors and thermald. I am using an i7 7700 (Kaby Lake 65 W 
TDP) in a Streacom FC8 Alpha with a 120 W power adapter, using only the 
integrated Intel HD 630 GPU. It maintains nearly full turbo boost under 
heavy CPU load, in complete silence. Discrete GPUs are the real power 
hogs and heat generators in modern systems.

Laptops are harder; there used to be low-power fanless models that 
radiated heat through the keyboard, but these seem to be less common. I 
hope ARM64 will become more common.

Kind regards,
