At least for the lower power draw models, can you disable the fan entirely? Or cut the RPMs in half?

It’s an i5-6500T, which is the same as the regular Skylake, but limited to a max of 2.5GHz

I actually solved the problem by just discretely routing an Ethernet cable to a closet - but considering that it averages 10W from the wall, I definitely suspect I could get away with taking the lid off and adding a larger heat sink.
