Noctua Stand for Nerdaxe Gaia

NerdAxe Gaia Stand with Rear Noctua Cooling. A purpose-built 3D printed stand for the NerdAxe Gaia with an integrated rear cooling fan and splitter, designed to improve airflow while keeping the miner clean and compact on a desk or shelf.

The stand securely supports the Gaia while keeping the board, display, connections, and cooling hardware easy to access. Its open frame and ventilated side panels help prevent heat from becoming trapped around the miner.

A Noctua NF-A4x20 PWM 40 × 20 mm fan is mounted directly behind the ASIC area, providing additional airflow to the rear of the board where heat can otherwise build up. This complements the fan mounted on the Gaia heatsink, cooling the miner from both sides. :chatgpt-content-reference{index="0"}

The included fan splitter allows the rear fan and the Gaia heatsink fan to operate from the miner's fan connection. With airflow provided from both sides, the fans can be run at lower speeds when conditions allow, helping reduce overall noise while maintaining effective cooling. :chatgpt-content-reference{index="1"}

What's Included

NerdAxe Gaia Cooling Stand
Includes the 3D printed stand, pre-installed Noctua NF-A4x20 PWM rear fan, and fan splitter cable.

Cooling Setup

The rear Noctua fan sits behind the Gaia board and directs airflow around the back of the ASIC area, while the miner's main heatsink fan handles cooling from the front. Using both fans provides airflow across both sides of the miner and can help maintain lower temperatures without relying on a single fan running at high speed. :chatgpt-content-reference{index="2"}

Compatibility

Designed specifically for the NerdAxe Gaia.

Please note: NerdAxe Gaia miner and the Noctua fan mounted to the Gaia heatsink are not included.
