juniorbudel Posted May 22, 2023 Share Posted May 22, 2023 Your fanless solution for the Mac Mini M1 is excellent. I'm buying an MMM1 for use with HQPLAYER + Roon Server, I'm going to install an external linear font and I'm also studying options to make it fanless (the solution proposed in this thread seems difficult for me to implement). I thought of using an external fan like this and leaving the cover under the MM open. https://a.aliexpress.com/_msPvVPq Thoughts? Link to comment

But this fan gonna vibrate so…. Link to comment

Well, there would be electrical isolation between the fan and the MM, but the vibration will be difficult to dissipate. Link to comment

It's great to see that my Mac Mini is now running with the benefit of clean linear power, Etheregen-improved network and Singxer-SU6-improved USB to I2S... ...fanless, speakerless and wifi-antenna-less...

juniorbudel Posted May 23, 2023 Share Posted May 23, 2023 @EddCould you tell us what measurements of the heatsink matched perfectly with the original Mac Mini heatsink? Thanks. Link to comment
Edd Posted May 24, 2023 Author Share Posted May 24, 2023 @juniorbudel it’s 63mmx 45mm juniorbudel 1 Link to comment
Heckyman Posted July 25, 2023 Share Posted July 25, 2023 Great stuff! Inspired by this an other threads, I recently fitted the Teradak LPSU board on a base model M2 and hooked up a Farad Super 3, it's quite an upgrade! I also decided to try simply removing the fan before anything more radical. I'm not doing anything CPU intensive (HQ Player upsampling etc). It runs fine without, though if there is an SQ uplift, it is less obvious than the PSU change. Link to comment
