Acoustics
Noise is generally the bain of most consumers lives and in the hope of finding the quietest operation, we feel it’s necessary to show you the audio level of components. We use the same components throughout this test and use a sound level meter to record the audio level of the system. Once we have the level recorded at idle, we simulate a load using software and measure the level again.
For such a small fan we were expecting a fair bit of noise as most small fans produce quite a racket. This fan was no different when on load. Idle was barely noticeable but when the fan kicked in at load it really did sound like a plane was taking off spinning at just over 6300RPM. Luckily this board can be run passively by disconnecting the fan, but temperature will rise slightly.
