Hey everyone,
Has anyone tried out water cooling kits for the S19? I'm curious if it actually helps with noise reduction. Is it really worth the investment?
Appreciate any insights!
Installing a water cooling kit can greatly reduce the noise, prolong the life of the chip and additional to that it can improve the miner's performance.
The noise is reduced because you dont need these high-speed fans, which are required for air cooling, any longer.
As I mentioned above: By using water cooling, the temperature will drop significantly which also has a positive influence on the power consumption of the hashboard.
Make sure that you choose the right kit if you are going to buy a kit. There are a few differences between the S19 models.
There will be some noise ofc. But its nothing compared to air-cooled systems. Some kits are designed to operate as silent as possible.
They also come with a fan speed controller which can be used to control the speed and so on. However, you should be careful if you don't know what you are doing - dont lose sight of the temperatures of the hasboards.
