So, I've performed ducting and noise reduction is pretty good
Firstly, I want to mention, that my tube is different from what Philipima1957 advised me. Its' isolating layer is thin (actually I expected it would be twice or triple thicker - 2.5cm), so tube itself didn't reduce noise much, but I covered it with 3 blankets and then it was a significant noise reduction, so now I'm in the room next to miner and I don't hear it at all, working on 100% Smiley

I placed miner and PSU fully inside the duct, cut a small hole in it for PSU wire
Pointed out of the duct into the window, so it is pulling air from room into the window (I've done visa-versa at first, but is was not a good idea)

Not very esthetic, but effective Smiley

Now I run it at 700mhz freq and customized fan speed and temp results seems to be normal (as I was told by seller - 62-68d.cent. is ok)

It occupied one room but I don't use that room at all) Local temp in my apartment is ok, as it should be at summer, miner doesn't affect it now, and noise is not heard almost at all.

Question is - is 62-68 temp ok? Is that bad or not to run it on 100% in the duct?
