Annoyed by the constant surging and whine of the fan on S5 ?,
Put small heatsinks on the two temperature sensor chips LM57A(8 pin chip at the center of the hashing boards)






Heatsink on the Temp sensor chip will lower fan speed to default low ~2.2Krpm.
 Do it for both the hashing boards and enjoy peace and quiet

both mine constantly ramp up and down in speed, they are in my basement which is nice and cool, I also see you have your frequency turned way up

what heat sink to buy....if u could post that as well...thx

The fans will stay at constant 2.2krpm and will not surge

Is it save applying heatsinks to all chips? Or that is a waist of money?
