How do you find the NUC for noise? I've found that the CPU fans on them are annoyingly loud, and that they are a particularly irritating shrill frequency - and that they start ramping up at relatively low CPU usage.
I found going slightly bigger (around mini-ITX sized) resulted in vastly less noise, and more machine for the price.
- lostlogin 6y agoI don’t have any issue and am noise sensitive. The real bugbear is the Synology that’s next to it. 16TB drives are very very noisey. They chatter constantly and it drives me mad. This may also cover the fan noise. The NUCs are in a hallway cupboard, so aren’t next to me when working and this would also lessen the noise.
- minimaul 6y agoHm, fair enough! I have a NUC8i5BEH here that is used as a linux desktop for testing and the fan spins up annoyingly often (and it's quite loud when it does). Maybe the cupboard is just enough to muffle it :)
