Been using my new favorite toy a lot and I just couldnt deal with the noise the fan made so decided to sort that out.
This is the stock fan
After doing some searching of the stock fan, I came up with this info:
Noise Rating:33.5dB
The fan is 60x60x25mm, 12VDC and finding a silent replacement was a doddle.
I ended up ordering this little fella from QuietPC.com
The original is “hardwired” into a power connector so I had to do a little bit of splicing to wire it in but other than that there was no problems. The new one even came with rubber mounts so I didn’t have to fight on getting the lower bolts back in.
This is the end result and it runs at 15dB so nice and quiet.
