^ latest gen antminers are 78-80db at similar distance so if anything your old one is less noisy.
Yes, I definitely will have to make a sound dampening box then. Maybe point them directly at the neighbors house

So just for kicks, I popped my old GAW Blackwidow (Zues) miner out of the box. Running an old cgminer 3.1.1 build the damn thing fired right up on my windows machine. Stuck it on multipool and it's hashing right along at 14 MH/s 
It's just so funny to hear how loud the thing is after not having it running for almost 3 years. 50db 2 feet away on the side about 70db 2 feet in front or behind it.
It is in no way on earth going to mine half as much as it consumes in electricity @485 watts. I guess it's more to get the wife used to the sound again so that when the L3+'s get here she will be accustomed to it (might have to build some sound dampening boxes.
Anyone else had old relic miners running lately?
