Title: GAWMiner Falcon - Making GAW quieter Post by: ncsupanda on July 29, 2014, 12:11:55 PM Anyone have any tips on making the GAWMiner Falcon and other miners more quiet? I'd like to buy some replacement fans that match the specs but put out less decibels.
I've been looking around for this answer, so I'm hoping that by making my own thread others can find these answers. Fan specs (I believe): -120 mm -120 cfm -??? dBa Thanks all!

Thank you both! Title: Re: GAWMiner Falcon - Making GAW quieter Post by: Librexcoindev on July 30, 2014, 02:47:39 PM Yes mines a bit noisy too. It would be good to find decent quieter fans.

I suppose limited space wouldn't allow, but I've always had my miners hosted in a data center so really have no clue how loud they get.
Is it really noticable? I mean I use a fan as "white noise" to sleep all the time.

I mean I use a fan as "white noise" to sleep all the time. It's not crazy noisy but you can hear it if its in the same room. Like a hair dryer on a low setting. I actually have mine in a room in a lower part of the house that is cool along with some Furys, Blackwidow (also noisy) and Gridseeds (not so much) and 5 gpu rigs (quite noisy). It has fan noise and gets warm in there anyway. Best bet is to have them in a separate room if you can but if you can't put them in a area away from you and others.
