Its seems that the n6005 version is not a good a choice, at least not from topton! I know they are like just "resellers" and not really the manufactures of the motherboard and etc, but there might be other "resellers" out there which are not sending ES cpu's for the n6005 model.
To me it seems like a chip shortage, is making them just sell what they can get their hands on, which is sad
But i'll be honest i am still curious about this other version:
PS: This one right now is costing $ 150,00
Which has a different motherboard and chassis, and they seem more refined with the cpu better aligned with the thermal solution. And for me, as long as they don't send an ES chip but a production\retail one, the thermal solution can be fixed with DIY since these are sooo cheap.
Also there is this \/
"There’s a review left on AliExpress which describes the measures taken to lower the temperature:
## Bios/Uefi settings ##
– Advanced
– CPU – Power Management Control
– View/Configure Turbo Options
– Power Limit 2 Override [Enabled]
– Power Limit 2 22000
– CPU VR Settings
– PSYS PMax Power 176
– Acoustic Noise Settings
– Acoustic Noise Mitigation [Enable]
– Slow Slew Rate for Vccln Domain [Fast/16]
– C states [Enabled]
## Case mods ##
– Add 2x 1.5mm (or one 4mm) thermal pad on all smd coil inductors
– Repaste CPU with better paste (Thermal Grizzly Kryonaut for example)
With this settings and mods coil whine went down and also temps are about ~43C (8% load, Proxmox 7.2 + 2 VMs, room temp. ~28C)"
