Title: S5's are too loud!
Post by: Pathi on May 20, 2015, 02:20:52 PM
Has anyone swapped the fan on their s5? I am thinking about using 2 quieter fans in a push/pull configuration. Will this work?

Yes... quite a few people have done this.  Take a look around and you'll find a few posts describing how it's done.

You've still got one of those bad boys?  The very first thing out of the little lady's mouth when I powered up my SP10 for the first time was - she was sitting outside on the back porch and I was downstairs in the basement - she comes running in and says, "Is that screeching coming from your new miner???  You're freaking kidding me, right?"

With the fans at 40% at least we couldn't really hear it unless we went into the basement.  At 80% or above we could hear it outside.
