The iMac is just 11.5mm thin, according to Apple. The smaller logic board allows for such a setup. The iMac is so compact (the back is now completely flat), Apple said it occupies 50 percent less space than the previous gen model so it can easily fit into many more places. It has two fans which are claimed to run quite most of the time (under 10dB).
