I saw this video yesterday...a little iffy about the choice of heatsink. But I low key really like the horizontal orientation of the PCB vs. the vertical/slanted. I feel like a good system can be built with raising the stilts higher, back fan to suck in, and top fan to exhaust out.
My daughter is Gen Alpha. I'm not sure about a Blue-Collar role, but I do know she should be stacking sats, so that's exactly what I'm helping her do. :)

I switch back and forth. Currently in a pool, but I’ll switch back to solo using DATUM later this month.
Not a fan of the aesthetic, so out of the gate, it’s a non-starter for me. Plus, I’m old now, so passed the phase where I’d find it appealing. 🤣
I used to but not as much anymore. Kids and lack of interest, really. I can’t say I’m a total teetotaler, but it’s maybe a 2-3 times a year deal now.

Nope, a new heatsink will not make more noise. Not sure if you changed the fan, but that'll likely make your unit be whisper quiet.

That's pretty damn good for a stock heat sink! On my units, I've noticed a considerable temperature drop when I upgrade the heatsink. The fan upgrade is more of a noise thing, IMO. All that's to say is you could be even more impressed with performance if you did upgrade that heatsink, but I sense you don't want to. :)

Nice! What's your current hash rate and settings? Are you using stock frequency and voltage?
They’re placed in an impossible situation. As much as Trump wants them to cut rates, tariffs alone are highly likely to trigger inflation, so expanding the money supply would make it worse.

That's the most fun. One of my friends asked me how much money I expect to make. I tell them the miner alone will put me in the hole alone, and the upgrades will push me further down. But it doesn't matter...there's almost a sport behind trying to maximize hash/stability and keeping it ice cool.
