Can anyone tell me how to make an SP10 run relatively quiet? I read a few things about running them down at 1000w, is that safe. Even if its just at 1Th/s I am fine with that. What is your advice?
lol @ people taking noise into consideration when buying mining equipment.
If you have to care about that, just buy btc directly, mining is not for your type.
I am running 6TH worth of rk-boxes, antminers S2/S3, and BTCgarden units, and the combined volume is about half of my SP10 running at 50% fans.
mining quietly is not difficult, the BTCgarden units are the quietest by far, basically no louder than the EVGA 1300 powering them. The SP10 is a monstrosity in terms of noise, and should never be put inside a building within earshot of people
The SP10 can be run without stock fans. But that involves of ducting and high pressure exhaust fans (much lower noise tho). However, the PSU is quite noise which why you should use acoustic foam around the SP10s.
