What We Review
Every unit we assess goes through noise measurement, thermal mapping, and a 72-hour burn-in at residential voltage. We focus on rigs a newcomer can actually run at home.
Power Cost Estimation Report
We calculate your projected monthly KEPCO bill based on rig wattage, run hours, and your district's rate tier.

Ventilation & Heat Assessment
We measure your room's airflow and heat capacity to determine if your chosen rig will run safely without ducting.
View DetailsWhy First-Time Buyers Come to Us
Most sellers list hash rate and move on. We measure what matters in a Korean apartment: fan noise at 1 metre, outlet draw on a 220 V circuit, and whether the heat output is manageable without ducting.
Filecypressway Mining Review started in 2019 when our founder, Jun-ho Park, bought his first used Antminer and discovered that manufacturer specs rarely matched the reality of a Gangnam spare room. He began documenting wattage, decibel readings, and monthly electricity costs for friends who asked the same questions.
Today our small team in Seoul reviews air-cooled units from 0.05 TH/s entry models through mid-range 0.1 TH/s machines. We do not sell hardware. Our income comes from consultation fees and written assessments, which keeps our reviews independent.
From the Field
Practical notes on ventilation, power contracts, and rig maintenance written for newcomers.
How Loud Is a 0.05 TH/s Rig in a Korean Apartment?
We measured decibel levels from three popular 0.05 TH/s rigs in a typical Seoul apartment setting.
Ventilating a Spare Room for Air-Cooled Mining
Window fans, intake paths, and heat management for apartment miners who cannot install external ducting.
Voices from the Bench
Jun-ho measured the noise in my study before recommending a rig. The unit he suggested runs at 58 dB — loud enough that I knew what I was signing up for, but not a surprise at 2 a.m.— Min-ji K., Seongnam, ventilation assessment client
The written report compared three 0.06 TH/s models side by side with actual KEPCO bill projections. I still went with a different brand than they recommended, but the data made the decision straightforward.— Tae-woo L., Busan, rig comparison report
