You coding all this by yourself?

PSU fan is definitely 2 pin

the psu fan should be two pin

well, there's a good chance that you could have a fan that needs replacement. these things are 5+ years old. And most of them have been through hell. I've replaced some fans in mine.

did you take it apart and clean it all out?

Awesome! Welcome to the club!

I have an Antminer S9i running BraiinsOS+ that I want to use to heat my apartment with but I obv don’t want too much noise. Does anyone have any tips to configuring/underclocking the miner to run more silently? I don’t care if it’s running at a net loss. Just want to heat my home and maybe earn some sats while doing so.

I’m a complete noob when it comes to this shit so bear with me

Alright, i need to re-follow everyone.

Wave your hand under this note please.

Have you considered building a little insulated box out of plywood to house the miner? Mitigate sound and then direct the heat with fans.

Yo. I had this same problem and found a great solution after some time and research and totally use my S9 to heat my apartment. (Mainly as a small space heater).

What you have to do if you are going for quiet is replace the fans first. The Phanteks T-30’s (about $30 each on amazon) are great replacement fans but they max out at 3000rpm, but they are almost dead silent. When it’s all said and done the loudest thing is the power supply fan…. The downside (if you want to call it that, i personally think its a positive) is that you need to use BrainsOS+ and keep the S9 running at 1200 watts or less because the Phanteks will only spin up to 3000 rpm unlike the stock fans that spin at like 6000 and are loud af.

Ends up being a great, quiet miner that you can tolerate for hours at a time sitting in the same room with. I can sit by mine a few feet away and forget its even on.

Feel free to DM me if you want more info to pursue this path. A few more small details to mention but generally thats all you need and it works great.

As a noob, how straight forward was it for you to get the miner hooked up to a pool and earning sats?

Sir, that’s a bazooka😂

Configuration, Performance, Auto Tuning, PSU Power Limits. Put in 800.

I believe you are already to use the BraiinsOs+ interface/dashboard (whatever it is called) and adjust the settings on your miner. That should reduce wattage, hash rate etc and affect the sound I think. However have not used it directly. Can anyone else chime in with more experience?
