the waf for this box is terrible when you do everything out of the box. the thing is, that the installed BIOS driver switches the CPU fan to full speed once it reaches 50°C. and this temperature is reached almost immediately. and the fan noise actually is comparable to an old (non-slim) xbox360, so it is actually really loud. after installing the BIOS update (available on zotacs offical website), the cpu fan resembles a whispering as it only gets loud when reaching 65°C, more like a PS3 slim fan noise. So even after an BIOS update you will hear the fan but i do not notice it when sleeping in my bed and being 3 meters away from the zbox, even after watching 2 1080p movies one after another
