Goldshell XTBOX 580G Unboxing Review: A Compact Low-Noise SHA-3X New Favorite In today's server market, high-power, high-noise "big guys" are emerging one after another, but for miners who prioritize energy conservation, power saving, and a quiet home experience, small and efficient servers are the best choice. Today, we're welcoming the newly launched Goldshell XTBOX 580G — a cost-effective server designed for lightweight mining scenarios. Let's take a look at its real performance together with editor Li Yi.



1. Initial Impressions: Compact Body, Full Industrial Feel
At the moment of unboxing, the design of the Goldshell XTBOX 580G left a deep impression. The entire machine adopts the classic Goldshell family compact structure, with a solid black metal shell and exquisite craftsmanship. The body size is only 150×198×96mm, weighing about 2.43kg, making it easy to place on a desktop, in a cabinet, or on a home server rack. The packaging is simple yet well-protected, with the server securely embedded in foam to avoid bumps during transport. From the front, two high-speed fans are neatly arranged, while the rear power supply and network port layout is reasonable, with tidy cable management. The overall feeling of the machine is "small but powerful", unlike traditional servers which can be "heavy and rough".

2. Interface and Appearance Design: Simple yet Practical
The back interface area of the Goldshell XTBOX 580G is very clear: the Ethernet port is used to connect to the mining pool; PWR power indicator, SYS system light, and IP button are all included; the dual-mode connection port supports flexible power supply methods, compatible with 110~240V voltage. The power interface uses a standard 10A power line, which plugs in and out smoothly and is compatible with commonly available server power supplies. The fan speed reaches 4500 RPM, ensuring cooling performance while controlling noise, with the official noise level stated as ≤35dB. During actual testing, even when placed indoors, there was almost no noticeable wind noise.

3. Performance Test: Stable Output, Outstanding Energy Efficiency
The Goldshell XTBOX 580G supports the SHA-3X algorithm, mainly used for mining the dense currency $XTM. The parameters under the official default mode are as follows: Hash Rate: 580GH/s ±5% Power: 400W ±5% Energy Efficiency Ratio: 0.69J/GH. In practical tests, the XTBOX 580G's performance was quite stable. After running for 30 minutes, the hash rate remained stable, fluctuating around 580GH/s, with power consumption around 395W. After the cooling fan started, the temperature maintained at around 45°C, with no significant heat noise or overheating phenomena.

4. Noise Performance: The "Quiet Hunter" Among Servers
The Goldshell XTBOX series is known for its quiet operation, and the XTBOX 580G takes this feature even further. During actual operation, the fan noise was extremely low, measured at only about 33~35dB, meaning you can place it in the bedroom, office, or even study without affecting daily life. This is a significant advantage for home miners.

5. User Experience: Simple to Use, Plug and Play
The operation of the Goldshell XTBOX 580G follows Goldshell's consistent "fool-proof" design, with the main unit paired with a pin-plug silent power supply. You just need to connect the power and network cable, log in to the management backend, and it’s easy to set the mining pool address and wallet information. Whether you are a novice or an experienced miner, you can complete the deployment in just a few minutes. The LED status lights are clear; the blue SYS light flashing indicates the system is running normally, and the green PWR light shows stable power, making the entire process straightforward.

6. Conclusion: XTBOX 580G, Small Size with Big Energy
In summary, the Goldshell XTBOX 580G is a mini server that balances performance, energy efficiency, and quietness. It not only boasts an excellent hash rate of 580GH/s and a power consumption as low as 400W but also offers a noise level of ≤35dB, a lightweight body, and an easy operating process, making it an ideal choice for home mining and novice miners. For those looking to try the SHA-3X algorithm and experience the charm of mining $XTM, the XTBOX 580G is undoubtedly one of the most cost-effective small servers on the market.
