10GBE Home Network: Network Card Cooling Upgrade With Noctua NF-A4x10 PWM

This is a Sponsored Video!

10GBE network cards can overheat. Lets solve that by installing active coolers! The Noctua NF-A4x10 PWM is a really nice 40mm cooler.
I use 2 10GBE networkcards Chelsio T420-CR and Solarflare S7120

Love Noctua too. They are a bit on the pricey side and some people don't like the color but hey, it functions really good and i think the color makes it a bit unique to other fans

Funny that AkBKukU is doing a 10gbit file server at the same time as you and he uploaded a video about adding fans onto his 10gbit cards just a day before you

Retro Machines, duct tape mods edition. If you only knew how many production machines are held together with zip

Merk je veel verschil met Noctua fans? Ik heb recent een SC847 aangeschaft en heb wat moeite met het vinden van de juiste fans. De standaard geleverd 7 stuks maken te veel herrie. Die vervangen met 5stuks Fractal Design 140mm, lekker rustig maar koelen niet echt goed. Nu ben ik sinds gisteren op jouw kanaal belandt en zie dat jij de fans van Noctua gebruikt. Ik begrijp dat ze erg stil zijn, maar leveren ze ook de juiste koeling. SC847 Is op gebied van fans beetje een ramp omdat de ruimtes beperkt zijn.

The workgroup server I have downstairs is full of old Nidec fans I pulled out of PS/2 Model 25 systems I bought for parts. While not exactly quiet due to their blade geometry they make a very pleasant low whirring noise.

I'm that guy that still uses the 32 bit PCI slot 😂

I’ve been running Chelsio cards like this 24x7 for a few years. They need active cooling unless your case airflow is cyclonic.

Thanks... I need to do this for my 10Gbe NIC. The 92mm fan I have pointed at the NIC in my server was easy enough, but putting a 40mm on the ASUS NIC my workstation won't be as simple, but I'm running into too many overheating issues to ignore.

6:09 The NF-A4x10 manual says not to connect it to the computer's conventional outputs because this could damage it, because it is only 5V, how do I know that the motherboard input you showed is 5V and not 12V? (sorry i am dumb)

Interesting! I originally did a similar fan mod with noctuas nf-a4-10s as well but they added too much z height to my Intel X540-T2 cards making them no longer single slot. In the end I ended up buying a few decommissioned old blower fan style GPUs, Nvidia Quadro k420s. I drilled out matching holes for the original heatsink on the gpu cooler heatsinks then tapped the holes I made with the shortest m.2 standoffs I could find. After getting them in there I used the m2 spring screws from the gpu cooler and the small nylon washers to fasten the cooler to the card then spliced the fan wire and soldered on a standard pwm fan connector. Then I could control the fans through the motherboard and it keeps the NICs cool af.
