The problem is that I can't find a case that supports this configuration
without fan. Closest I've found in the M350, which supports fully passive
cooling for <10W TDP CPUs, but the IONITX-T-E has an Atom D525, which has
13W TDP + the ION-GPU which will also produce some heat.
So I'm a bit afraid that it might get a little too warm in there...

That's actually the same case I am using, but the ionitx-c-u uses an Atom
230 which has a TdP of 4W
