Asrock 330 HT noise reduction plan
Ever since I’ve had my Asrock 330 HT I have been annoyed by the high pitch noise level it produces. It´s a great device to run XBMC live on, but Asrock’s claim for the device to be silent only holds when the device remains unplugged or when it’s overruled by some speaker set cranked up to 10. Googling my way to some sort of a sort of a solution, I found out that the noise was mainly caused by the fan being screwed too tight to it’s heatsink. A looser coupling would be the solution.
