Anyway, Minisforum, has restricted the CPU to 65W by default (You can increase it from BIOS or use XTU) and for that it runs pretty cool, around 80 degree C at all core load. Check the review below: -

Warning: it does appear you can easy fry your M.2

Looks great, But, doesn't the i9 make this thing run as hot as hell? I don't see adequate cooling here. I might be missing something because they sell these all day.
If I tried to render a 3d animation with this I think it would run tooo hot.
In the future I could see a form factor where most what you see is a 3 fans of a cpu water cooler with awhole tiny computer built in to the fan structure. Or, simplified, this product with a 3 fan cpu water cooler glued to it.

I've never looked into E&P cores, I'd think the compiler or OS would have to know these exist and how to use them, quick google indicates 'applications that are written with hybrid CPUs in mind may even spawn threads that are assigned to both kinds of cores depending on their demands' seems to suggest its all application based. Gaming reddits seem to suggest turning E off increase game performance. Now I've got to spend hours researching this.
AND per the pics, Intel AMT. Nice!
And what makes you think that 13th gen i7 will perform better? I hpe you know the simple fact that 13th Gen U, P and H series processors are exactly same as their 12th gen counterparts with minor clock speed boost, manufacturerd in same fabrication process.
