Ice River AE2L 570M: 1300W/h power consumption, meets high-intensity mining needs
#Ice Age AE2L 570M Server Unboxing Review: Quietly Mining ALEO's Big "Beast"
In the wave of pursuing privacy computing and zero-knowledge proofs across the network, ALEO has become a "new frontier" in the eyes of many miners. The layout of IceRiver in the ALEO dedicated servers also caught people's attention. Today, editor Li Yi brings you a "cold-blooded beast" specially designed for ALEO - IceRiver AE2L 570M, to see if it lives up to its name.
🎁 Unboxing: Industrial-style shell, professional aura maximized
When I received the package, my first feeling was: heavy!
The dimensions of the packaging box are 560 x 314 x 382 mm, with a gross weight of 16.8 kg. Upon opening the package, a complete server with an aluminum alloy gray body comes into view. The shell is molded in one piece, with a robust design style, which perfectly aligns with miners' imagination of an "industrial warrior."
The body dimensions are 430 x 195 x 290 mm, which is moderately sized but very solid, with a net weight of 15.5kg. The front face features a dual-fan design that is highly recognizable, and there are also two exhaust ports at the back, clearly indicating sufficient optimization for heat dissipation.
⚙️ Parameter Configuration: Visible High Performance
Project Parameters
Hash Rate 570MH/s ±5%
Power consumption 1300W ±10%
Energy efficiency ratio approximately 2.28 W/MH
Interface Ethernet Cable Connection
Input voltage 200-250V AC, maximum 16A
Operating temperature 0~35°C
From the paper specifications, this AE2L belongs to the mid-to-high-end level among ALEO dedicated servers. Especially with a power consumption of 1300W and a hash rate of 570MH/s, it is more efficient than the previous generation products, offering a highly competitive cost-performance ratio.
🔌 Power On: The Sense of Power in Silence
After the first power-on, the fan performs a high-speed self-test, then gradually reduces its speed, with the overall noise controlled within a relatively "humane" range. Compared to the roaring noise of traditional BTC servers, which often exceeds 70-80 decibels, the AE2L is quite restrained—during the testing environment conducted by editor Li Yi, it remains around 55~60dB.
Connect to the Ethernet, log in to the management backend, set up the mining pool address and account, and the server quickly starts working. The average stable hash rate is maintained at around 565MH/s, with very little fluctuation, and the power consumption is stable in the range of 1290~1320W, performing in line with the official promotion.
🌡️ Heat Dissipation and Temperature Control: Staying Calm in High-Intensity Operations
Although it has an air-cooled structure, the cooling efficiency of the Ice River AE2L is impressive. In an environment with a room temperature of about 25°C, after running for 4 hours, the shell temperature remains between 45~48°C. The chip temperature is monitored in the background and shows 65~70°C, well controlled, with no overheating alarms or frequency reduction phenomena.
This indicates that it not only has a reasonable heat dissipation design but also precise firmware control, making it a machine suitable for long-term stable operation.
📝 Summary: Calmly "eating electricity", steadily advancing ALEO professional servers
The overall impression of the Ice River AE2L 570M is: no flashy appearance, no inflated data, it's a practical device born for stable mining.
✅ Advantages:
The computing power is real and stable, with official claims almost consistent with actual measurements;
Reasonable power consumption control, high energy efficiency ratio;
Moderate noise level, suitable for home or office deployment;
Easy to install and quick to get started;
Brand after-sales service is trustworthy.
❗ Note:
Heavy weight, handle with care during transportation;
Stable power supply support is required, it is recommended to use it with PDU;
Although air cooling is excellent, it is still recommended to place it in an air-conditioned room in high-temperature areas.
🛒 Is it worth getting?
If you are planning to get into ALEO mining or upgrade your existing server equipment, the Ice Age AE2L 570M is a highly cost-effective choice. Especially for small and medium miners who pursue stable computing power and worry-free operation, it is a truly "plug-and-play" good machine.
In this new era of efficiency and stability, Binghe tells editor Li Yi with AE2L: mining can also be very calm. #aleo#
