That's a great mod right there!
Those corsair fans should be as quiet as a whisper, and with a re-oriented S7 they could possibly do a wonderful job. I wonder though, what temps do you get with the S5? Also, what is the amperage rating on those corsairs?
Thank you. They really are very quiet. Probably the best choice for this. Especially due to their high static pressure. Temps go about 65-70°C at 400MHz. At 350MHz they're down at about 50-55°C, not requiring the fans to go 100%. If I manually set them to be 100% at all times, than temps are even lower.
Amperage of Corsairs is 0.36A/fan.
It seems that all the links are currently dead, does anybody have pictures backed up or anything? I am looking to swap out the fans on my S7 and was going to use this as a semi guide. I have gotten it very quiet so far using only 33% fan.
I may have photos archived somewhere. If I find them, I'll replace them.
Is there a place to purchase the 3D printed duct/spacers I see in some of these pictures? I've searched ebay, with no luck.
I don't think anybody's printing them for sale. Usually they just order a 3D printing service for themselves.
After testing that everything works, I've put the miner up for sale on ebay:
