The ultimate aim should be fanless operation. More so if yours doesn't have an
HDD inside. I have found a mention of experiments in that aspect:

block transfers the heat of the loongson CPU and the SIS 315PRO / XGI Volari
V2 GPU to the Aluminium Case. After compiling the whole morning, Copper Temp
is ~37°C and Case Temp is ~32°C. Pictures will follow... "
<Pictures did not follow, unfortunately.>

What makes work towards attaining this a bit difficult is the lack of a
temperature sensor in the Fuloong.
