As philip has already said you wont get silence. Mine runs about 45-50db but the ambient room temp is around 18c and as its a space heater it gets turned off at around 20-21c so it never gets that loud, well not for me. There is no point trying to use consumer grade fans, they just havent got the power. The AFB1212 is the best compromise but will never be truly silent.

you can not get silence

but the delta afb1212she is good. with 2 boards at about freq 360

here is a 2 board with 1 delta fan I need to push a little more volts . I set at 8.0  but have some errors

fans at 54% 1800 rpm which are good but not silent.

if you set to 45% fans will go to 1440 rpm but you need to clock a little lower.

like freq 330 and volts 8.0

Change the fan to Delta AFB1212SHE (I think). Single fan will be fine. You will need to change the firmware. Braiins OS works fine. You will need Braiins OS+ to be able to set a power usage figure. I have mine set to 775w now and it gets 10Th. Change the psu to whatever psu you like aslong as it has the right amount of PCIE cables. Personally the HP common slot supplies with appropriate breakout board abs cables works well.

I have got to ask, is Delta AFB1212SHE the fan fan for silencing an S9?
Just tried two Artic P12, it was a complete fail.

The default Nidec Ultraflo fans are utter Sh*t for this purpose, at 25% they are way noisy.
I have one S9 with an unbranded SHLF1212AHE-01, that i set to 45%, temperature performance is the same as Nidec and its much, much quieter.

Whats experiences you guys have with silent fans for S9?

Hi, I see that the subject is still interesting.

Philipma, you who are testing, why don't you test my mod for S9? I see that you have installed an old firmware, try mine: D you do not risk anything, you know me, and just see what is in the archive of my mod, only text files! its sorry for you to see you on an old firmware lol

Reminder:

1: Install original bitmain compatible firmware : https://file12.bitmain.com/shop-product/firmware/Antminer%20S9j/Firmware/00720181127220220494P2pANqkd06B7/Antminer-S9j-xilinx-201811301411-autofreq-user-Update2UBI-NF.tar.gz

2: install my mod : https://easyupload.io/ezpjt8

3: Enjoy!

as you already have the firmware that my mod needs, you can directly flash the mod!

it is not worth a big firmware with autotune, but at least it's free,: P

Yeah I have one running in my spare bedroom.

This one is July 2019 Bitmain firmware set to lowest setting
using an evga bronze psu.
I used inspect option to set fans to 1900 speed

Spimply was too lazy to burn a braiins sd card and make it that way.

I did sell more then 1 unit with 2 boards and 1 fan running braiins. as braiins lets you run with 1 fan

I also sold more then 1 unit with 1 board and 1 fan running braiins.

Braiins is better for these space heaters than stock July 2019 bitmain firmware.

WOW!!!

What a great thread, i literally came on here as i have an S9 case/board/controller/fans/Bitmain psu and was looking to build a something of low power and less loud as just having it standard with one card in middle slot with above parts.

I want to reduce noise/power mainly.

So fans would need replacing i presume are they are WAY overpowered to cool just one board?

Plus the APW3++ PSU makes a racket and @ 1600w is not needed for around 4-5Th/one board miner.

Has anyone ever considered this? Replacing fans and psu to achieve this goal?

Thanks

Have you contacted them recently to see if they have dropped their MOQ and/or price? I believe with the resent diff jump as well as price drop they might have become a bit more flexible with these hash boards, I would love up upgrade 30-30 of my S9s if the price is right, I certinally wouldn't take 600 of them.

I could check emails and see if he would sell less.

^ Guys, I think you mean Power Line Communication,
not PoE ?

PoE is for powering devices with 48VDC power supply via an ethernet cable (Data+Power).

That would make more sense actually. I didn’t even think of that option when I was looking into how to make the heater more moveable.

I looked into POE but with limited sockets in my house it wasn't worth the extra expense to set up a whole system. The lan bridge was only £12 and works great all over the house so in my eyes it was a great buy.

Also an RJ45 wifi bridge with wide range voltage input so can work over wifi and be powered from the psu directly...

Nice work you got, regarding the Wireless to LAN bridge, have you looked for something that has POE?

they are pretty darn nice upgrade and will run an s9 shell an s9 controller at 16,5th and around 860 watts

but I had one of the few in the USA. the builder wanted me to buy 600 boards as a minimum which is out of my league

no.  I have the exotic special s9 boards 3 of them they are very picky to mine various pools.

you need not be concerned about the three boards as they are not using braiins

they say they do. not sure if that is the only way it mines which is why they won't mine on solo.ckpool and mmpool.org.

I'm sorry for my ignorance, but are you saying that the BRAIINS OS is no good on CKPOOL and MMPOOL, or that they just do not take the boost into consideration?

It is a nice little rig. But the custom boards are fuck you to solo.ckpool and to mmpool.

I'm curious - do those boards have ASICBoost? If they do are they able to use AB on other pools?

I was wondering if a spacer between the fan and the chassis might help things a little even in the orientation I have it.

I would love to have the boards you have but I remember you saying the MOQ was 600 boards which was a bit of a joke really.

yeah I have the one piece set low works nice.

If you have a dead 120x120x25 fan just cut the center out leaving the 120x120x25 frame as a spacer. works a charm for me.
