Title: [WTB] Arctic Breeze usb fan
Post by: leowonderful on January 20, 2017, 12:02:01 PM
With my new Gekko stick I'd like to get a new fan for it so I can get to 350MHz instead of this anemic 150mhz. Willing to pay 7$ in BTC for one of these fans (not sure if it's computer hardware or not, mods please move if it doesn't belong).

I'd also buy other fans for a lower price as silence is pretty important for me, I run my miners with a raspi in my room and I can't sleep with loud fans.

Where abouts in the world are you? as they are pretty readily available on amazon and ebay.

Pennsylvania, US. Would use Purse.io but I don't really need anything else and they require a minimum of ten bucks just for your purchase to go through. The fans are seven bucks. My last few fans broke a while ago so I don't have any spares :/

I actually do have 120mms in my house and it runs just fine but it's way too loud and I'd rather have a more useful usb fan that I can use elsewhere besides mining. I have just one Gekko stick.

I ended up using a 6" fan to cool the entire hub and my futurebits...works like a charm!
