The relevant side of my card:

Ah darn I got the wrong fan! This is what I ordered: https://www.amazon.com/dp/B0CWYLC4LH?th=1 So I need to order what you linked. I didn't realize I would be arranging the fan in a blower-style.. thought I would just be mounting directly above the heat-sink "hole". My card only seems to have...

Very helpful! OK so this makes me think I'm missing a part of the 3D-printed shroud, to cover the fan and direct the air "blower style" through the card? The file should be two pieces? Looks like I need a part this indicated by the purple arrow? I already printed the 'mounting bracket' as seen...

@foureight84 I am feeling mighty dumb... can you show a picture of your card with the mount + fan installed?

Ah OK, cool! I'm printing it out now - thanks! And here I was thinking the 4010 fan needed to be mounted to blow on the chipset heatsink, but really it's the SFP that gets hot.

Hey there, checking back in as I received the adapter card, and I also got a couple of 4010 fans. The fan mounting points line up to the ones in the card, but the connector pin does not (top left in pic). I assume I need to strip the connector off the fan and solder directly to the 5V points on...

I am going to put it inside a eGPU, the Razer Core X Chroma which has a 120mm fan.

I wasn't planning on running a fan on the card, is that required?

Cool. Well OK, I ordered from AliExpress and will report back here if it is suitable.

Does this look right...

Any recent availability of such converter card? I'm doing a 25Gbps project and bought a Mellanox CX4421A ConnectX-4 LX 25GbE SFP+ Mezzanine CX4411D OCP Card to use in a Thunderbolt 3 eGPU enclosure with macOS. But I need a OCP to PCIe adapter card! I couldn't find anything via eBay.. Hoping to...

SOLD Hi all, I'm downsizing, listing this for a fair price to move quickly. No issues at all, and I replaced the single fan inside with a quiet Noctua version. Includes power cord and rack mount ears. Price $250 + $20 shipping to CONUS (only). Local pickup near ZIP 75248 also welcome.

You can add Netgear M5300-28G3 to the list. That’s what I had connected to my Netgear XS708T with about 5m of Cat5e (the longest I could dig up).

Nice review! I’ve been using the first-gen Orbi for several years now. One invaluable component of my current system is the Orbi outdoor satellite. I understand that it’s not compatible with this new version, but it would be nice if they announced if they’ll have a Wi-Fi 6 version, eventually.

Good news, I tried a regular Cat5 cable, just for you :D The longest I had was about 5m, but you can see it negotiates 10G. EDIT: oops, I realized I took a picture of my M5300, but the XS708T is the other connected device (at 10G).

I was hunting for a 24+ port switch with similar requirements as you. I ended up with the Netgear M5300-28G3, however the fans are a bit noisy. Still TBD if I’ll keep or try to find a replacement. Noctua fans (x4) I’ve tried to swap just don’t work. However, I also bought the Netgear XS708T to...

For fans of the Lenovo ”tiny” models: ThinkCentre M710q, ThinkStation P330 Tiny, etc.. You may read about capability of adding a Thunderbolt 3 PCIe card to the P330. I goofed around and spent way too much time (and money?) figuring out how to order one of these and install it in a Think Station...

I’m definitely a newbie in this area, but the Netgear M5300-28G3 seems to meet all your requirements save one: Only two 10GbE ports, although they can be 10GBase-T or SFP+. I got mine on eBay for $200, there’s one left.

Ya, like this would be awesome! https://www.servethehome.com/intel-nuc9vxqnx-nuc-review-xeon-quartz-canyon/ ^^ But whew, the price! So I made a decision/purchase, trying to stay close to a $600 budget. I ended up with a Lenovo ThinkStation SFF P330 w/Xeon E-2144G. I have a 500GB Samsung EVO...

You really got me thinking/looking at consumer CPUs :cool: Anyone have thoughts about either one of these two units (price ~$590-$610 each) for my use case? Keeping in mind, it would be strictly for fooling around, probably will put Hyper-V on it, containers, and fooling around with Plex and...
