Beginner-Friendly Silent Server: FLUMINER T3 Unboxing Guide and Insights

FLUMINER Lucky Deer T3 “Light Sound Mini Cannon” Home Silent Large Hashrate Server Hands-on Review: Is it worth it to pack 115T computing power into a bedroom?

01｜Unboxing First Impressions: Looks Are Justice

Unpack the double-layer industrial cardboard box, and the first thing that catches your eye is the matte gray metal chassis. With dimensions of 140×350×450 mm, it’s slimmer than a desktop case, and weighing 13.8 kg, even a girl can carry it with one hand. The front features only a cyan LED ring, resembling a mini host, completely overturning the stereotype that “servers = steel monsters.” The box includes a 100-240 V national standard eight-shaped power cord, ready to plug in and use, no need for an additional PSU, extremely friendly for beginners.

02｜Noise Test: How Loud Is 55 dB?

Officially rated at 55 dB at full load, 40 dB in energy-saving mode. Editor Li Yi conducted A-weighted tests in a 15 m² bedroom:

At 30 cm distance: full load 54.7 dB, energy-saving 39.8 dB

At 1 m distance: full load 49.1 dB, energy-saving 36.5 dB

Background with windows closed: 34 dB, almost inaudible fan noise, only 3 dB higher than the air conditioner at night, and it won’t be overwhelmed by “buzzing” when placed on a desk for typing. Compared to similar silent machines in the 80 T class, which generally start at 65 dB, FLUMINER T3 directly drops a “volume level.”

03｜Hashrate and Power Consumption: The Little Universe of 115 T

Running continuously for 72 hours, the average hashrate at the pool side is 116.4 T, rejection rate 0.02%, with excellent stability. Power consumption on the wall is 1689 W, with an energy efficiency ratio of 14.7 J/TH, consuming 40 kWh daily, consistent with official data. At an electricity price of 0.4 yuan/kWh, the daily cost is 16 yuan, placing it in the “really worth it” tier among home machines.

04｜Cooling Black Technology: Why Is It Both Cool and Quiet?

Disassembly reveals dual 120 mm magnetic levitation fans + integrated aluminum heat sink. The airflow adopts an “S-shaped recirculation” design, with hot air entering from the front window and exiting from the rear window, avoiding hot air swirling inside. The chip’s back is attached with a 0.5 mm graphene pad with a thermal conductivity of 1800 W/m·K, keeping the core temperature around 65 ℃, 8-10 ℃ lower than traditional silent machines. Lower temperature → lower fan speed → quieter noise, forming a closed logical loop.

05｜Smart APP: Remote Monitoring with One Click

Scan the QR code on the device to download FluminerGo, complete binding in 3 minutes. The homepage dashboard can display real-time hashrate, temperature, fan speed, rejection rate, and supports custom threshold alerts. In testing, setting the “High Temperature Warning” at 70 ℃, manually blocking the exhaust port, the app pushed notifications and emails within 2 minutes, response speed is good. Also, switching between “Energy-saving / Standard / High Performance” modes is one-click without rebooting, a boon for lazy users.

06｜Scenario Testing: Which Placement Is Better in Dorms, Study Rooms, or Living Rooms?

Dorms: On the bed or desk, noise level 49 dB, slightly noticeable at night, recommended to use energy-saving mode.

Study Rooms: Placed in a mainframe cabinet, with the door closed, noise <40 dB, blending into the environment.

Living Rooms: Daytime background 45 dB, completely “invisible,” can also serve as a heater.

07｜Purchase Recommendations: Who Is Most Suitable?

Home Miners: Power meter to the household, electricity price <0.4 yuan/kWh, want to utilize idle space to “mine for free.”

Gadget Enthusiasts: Want to use the server as an all-in-one server, mining while learning Linux, Python.

Beginners: Don’t want to tinker with 380 V industrial electricity, water cooling, transformers, just plug in and mine.

If your electricity price >0.6 yuan/kWh or pursue extreme cost performance with a payback within 200 days, it’s better to wait and see; otherwise, FLUMINER T3 is currently the highest overall score among “home silent machines,” no doubt.

08｜Summary in One Sentence

FLUMINER Lucky Deer T3 with 115 T hardcore computing power + 55 dB light sound performance turns “mining big pancakes at home” from a joke into reality; it’s not perfect, but perhaps the easiest “silent mini cannon” to bring home right now. Friends wanting to add some “sleep income” to their bedroom, go for it!
