noctua

Hey there dear STH-Community, a few months ago I was on the look out for a 19" rack mountable manage switch with PoE+ and came across a dirt cheap CISCO SG250-26P which I scored for 100€. It was (and still is) in perfect condition, but upon powering it up, what I've not taken into consideration...

(Moved this to the correct subforum) It was time to upgrade so that means it's time to pass on some hardware. This is a great kit of hardware that has served me well and would set someone up nicely to start their homelab. I'm located in 08861 (Perth Amboy, NJ) and prefer an in person meet vs...

Hi everyone, I've just build a hell of a monster with an Epyc 9334 QS in a Supermicro H13SSL-N. Not really knowing how all this worked yet, I grabbed some Noctua fans, as I had on my last build, but it seems even adjusting the thresholds either does nothing, so they keep oscillating, or has the...

Back up for sale, local sale fell through. I have gone to all enterprise SSD in my home lab so my consumer SSD stuff has to go. I would prefer to sell them as bundles. SOLD 2x Corsair Vengeance LPX 64GB (2 x 32GB) DDR4-3200 PC4-25600 CL16 Dual Channel Desktop Memory Kit CMK64GX4M2E3200 -...

I picked up a Supermicro X11SSH-F board for a new NAS build, paired with an E3-1270 v5, and bought a Noctua NH-L12S to cool it. I was getting everything ready when I realized the CPU backplate on the Supermicro board is not removable, and that heat sink requires the included backplate due to its...

So, like many others on here, I have the issue where my Supermicro doesn't like my Noctua fans and makes them spin up and down endlessly. I've seen different solutions here, but I'm running Windows and I'm not sure how to implement the solutions that I've seen. This is all on a Supermicro...

I recently acquired an Arista DCS-7048T-A for free and it's a great switch, but it sounds like a jet engine, even during idle and on 30% fan override (with temps within 20c of the warning threshold). I looked into replacing the fans with quieter models and came across this Reddit thread...

I just got an old CSE-835 and I already fell in love with it as I can use 3.5" and my 2.5" together. It's just the fan noise from the 'fan-bar' which bothers me already. Ok, I can set the fan speed in the bios, but that's just a statical solution. Therefore I'm already working on a 3D printed...

Thanks to @Rand__ for his help purchasing a solid Supermicro SC216 (2U) with a super quiet PWS-920P-SQ. I didn't have so much space for another 3U or 4U case in my IKEA home rack. Therefore I was looking for a 2U unit only, fully aware of the problems coming with it in a home office environment...

Please help... I have a Supermicro X11SCA-F running ESXi 6.7 update 3. The BMC is set for fan mode "full" (which was then followed by a cold start of the BMC). I've got impitool installed and I can control the Noctua fan noise and thresholds with the following script: # Supermicro X11SCA-F fan...

TLDR: If I plug in 3 Noctua industrial fans for PWM, none will spin up. If I plug in any two of them (or 2 + a rando fan), all will will work fine. I recently got a (new to me) X9DRi-LN4F+ SuperMicro motherboard inside SC846E16 4U chassis. After researching the best way to quiet it, I...

Hello all, Frequent lurker here. I think first time posting. Gradually putting together a larger post with my complete build, however I have a couple of loose ends. I’ve reviewed some of the threads on the CB3 but some info I haven’t found or I haven’t seen a direct comparison in my use case...

Hi, I'm building an 'old' HomeServer with 2 Xeon X5680's on an Intel S5520HC in a NZXT 340 Elite (Mid-Tower). My problem are the stuck fans from Noctua. These are NF-P12's Redux PWM with a fan speed range of 450rpm tp 1700rpm. The Intel board gives me constant CPU-Fan orange warning light...

Hello all! I know this has been talked a number of times but I'd like a concise answer if at all possible. I'm building a Supermicro-based Xeon Scalable home server and need PWM case fans (not in a Supermicro chassis). A build-log with pictures will be posted later. I'd prefer not to have to...
