Thank you for the fan fix blissz, couldn't replicate the problem, but had a feeling it had to do with when there's a network interruption, much relieved it's fixed.  Had chips go to 114 degrees on one machine before I noticed and quickly intervened.  Error rate was higher than normal after that on that machine even after restarting, but after a short cooldown period they are working perfectly again, guess I dodged a bullet.

Also received my end Nov batch d3 and the fans on this model is of a poorer quality, different model, lower amp and much louder than the fans on other batches, a shame since my other d3's were all much quieter with the custom firmware and now the new machine just tops out the overall noise level again.

Good to hear your d3 is fine!  Grin

You can replace the fans with some other models. I actually run mine now with two Scythe Slip Stream Slim 2000rpm, 120mm. This is of course not the solution if you want to run at high hashrates, but for the lowest voltage setting and 15 to 16 Mh/s this is a real nice and quiet fan.
I also modded the PSU: I added a small fan controller to have it run at half the RPM. Now this combination is actually really silent. I can have it run it in my living room if I want to.
