I need some quiet fans that would have enough airflow for the S5.

Nice play on words for your title Tongue I was expecting a fanboy thread XD

Likewise... however on topic, reducing the airflow with a quieter fan, you may end up only fanning the flames.

If anything perhaps bitmain could suggest a mod for two quieter fans to replace the stock single fan which would surely increase heat dissipation across the entire miner.

Do we know how loud it is? Might be quiet like the S1

I'll have to check fan headers once I get my unit so I know exactly how the headers behave, but likely the best solution will be to improvise a case over a second fan. Even cling film will help increase directed airflow and increase the use of the current pressure you have.

In the future, please direct S5 related questions into the S5 so we can keep the board clean.
