I'd still go with the Corsair's, they're the perfect balance of performance and noise. Yes the fans should run straight off the headers, worst case you'll have to use molex adapters and power them from the PSUs.

Its a greatly praised PSU that one, but not easily found at sensible prices in the EU and so Corsair remains king over here.



The user who asked has literally just flamed me in another thread, then came in here asking for help. I kindly send him on his way. My personal recommendation is 2x S3 fans if you've got them lying around or my go to is the SP120 Performance editions [Without affiliate] [With affiliate]. There are also PWM versions if you think you'll need it in the future [Without affiliate] [With affiliate]. They're right at the barrier between high performance and not being too annoying and I generally use them on most miners I silence.



If I were doing it on behalf of Bitmain, I'd be telling everyone to overclock and do mods so they don't have warranty costs



Fans like the SP120 will plug directly into an S5 and aren't silent but aren't horrific. They're ~2200 rpm with a high static pressure which is required in a situation like this more than just straight 'CFM' ratings. You don't tend to get LEDs on fans like this and above as they usually all go into servers and such like. There is a similar AF120 series which is LED, but isn't suitable for S5s as they're not powerful enough.



Thanks for your kind words.

Hi Ricky, thanks for your kind words. There is no reason you can't mine other coins on the Cube. The way you'll go about this is to find a pool on the coin you want, and in the .bat file enter that pool's details. Other than that, the instructions from section 4 are identical.

Added dip switch position picture from the Prisma guide to the troubleshooting section.

Capacity wise its fine as its really 2x500W pre PSU, I'm just not intimately familiar with that brand.

Its pushing it a bit close for an unknown quality PSU.

S5:
300mm x 137mm x 155mm
S3:
331mm x 137mm x 160mm

So identical widths, S3 a bit higher due to the top and bottom plates it seems. S3 is longer due to the additional fan, but that should account for 35mm, which suggests that the S5 is a bit longer.

Thanks for the feedback, thread can be found here if anyone is interested.
