Yes, you are right. Silent device is priority number one for me. And I think passive cooling could be better thought out. For example, look at Mikrotik RB5009

Unfortunately this switch has very ineffectual heat dissipation design. There is a metal plate inside of switch mounted on several stands and this plate contacts with hot chips through the thermal pads about 3-4mm thick. This metal plate has no either ribbing for better heat dissipation or any contact with switch's top…
