The #Bitaxe 601 Gamma does not utilize the old 4 pin fan connector that previous Bitaxe board versions did.

The Bitaxe 601 Gamma utilizes a micro 4 pin connector (to the left of the red circle), which is not compatible with current Noctua fan connector options. @solo_mining is currently working with Noctua for a solution.

As a workaround, users have been soldering the Noctua wires to the spot on the PCB where the old 4 pin connector use to be (circled in red).

I soldered a standard fan header on a nd now I'm using a fan on the rear to cool the Gamma; dropped temps quite a bit too!

Mind sharing where you sourced it?

I imagine these would work well: https://www.amazon.com/MECCANIXITY-Straight-Header-Single-2-54mm/dp/B0C7GMN8CL/ref=sr_1_4?sr=8-4

Do you have an idea of how much your temps dropped on average? Where did you source the header for the fan?
