Title: Quietest hardware miner for altcoins
Post by: DrOctogon on August 28, 2017, 05:39:58 PM
Noise is a big issue for me, so I'm interesting in finding out what the quietest miners available are. Thanks

It's expensive nowadays but I bought some of these for science some time ago:

I have been testing the All in one coolers from MSI as well. They are pretty quiet don't go above 55 degrees C when on full load and don't require any external fans. Only issue is that if you want to put it on a mining frame you have to consider the radiator.
