I'm interested in buying the board + 8GB ram + the case/rack/chassis.
I already know they're Delta fans. But can you please tell me what kind of fans the actual chasiss will have? Maybe fan model?

Also, if you don't mind can you download a dBm meter app on your phone and tell me how loud this will be? And if you feel generous, maybe check the power consumption with a Kill A Watt or something and post it here?

Thanks!

At the moment we are considering NMB MAT 4710KL-04W-B56 or Delta AFB1212VH fans for the quieter version of the Octominer rig. I will get testing samples in a few days and post results here.
Currently I am running 0.45A  Ong Hua HA1225M12S-Z fans that are around 35dB in the test rig 4U case with 8X GTX 1060, mining Zcash with an overclock and undervolt, ambient temperature is 27 C and the GPU temperatures range from 58 to 63 C and it's pretty quiet. Previously I had Delta AFB1212SHE fans, they provided great airflow but were really loud, around 60dB, temps with the Deltas were in the 50-56C range.

If anybody has any other fan recommendations then I am listening  Smiley
