Official Creality 3D Ender 3 Pro Silent Motherboard V4.2.7 Upgrade Mute Mainboard with TMC2225 Driver for Ender 3/Ender 3 V2/Ender 3 Pro/Ender 5

i have the silent mother board on another Ender 3 Pro but this one im hearing a vibrating noise on the stepper motors thats very annoying, im pretty sure its a defect and will be returning

Started out completely silent, but after 2 weeks the motors or something on the board itself is making more and more noise. Additionally, Creality firmware support is pretty much non-existent. Also they have too many websites, each with a different version of firmware for this board. v1.1.2, v1.1.9, v1.3.1 is it actually Marlin 2 or not, who knows?

The board works very well... very quiet... But beware if you have an Ender 5, as the stock firmware for the board is set for the Ender 3 - which has an entirely different physical layout and will cause the servos to attempt to autohome to the Ender 3 form factor. The flashing of the firmware for the Ender 5 is not self-explanatory. I almost returned the board for this reason, but I was eventually successful. My recommendation is to search for a tutorial at (link removed per Amazon review policies). (1) Dload the 1.1.15 Ender 5 hex file firmware from Creality dropbox. (2) Install AVRDude (3) If you have a linux system, you have it slightly easier. Plug into the usb on the board and copy/paste the following CLI command: sudo avrdude -c arduino -p m1284p -P /dev/ttyUSB0 -b115200 -U flash:w:/home/user/Downloads/ender5.hex That should do it.

Perfect fit, works great, connector for the CRTouch worked. Only issue was I had to reflash it for the printer to home even though it was supposed to be set up for the ender 3 pro by default. The reflash was quick and easy though.

Fairly new in the 3D printing world and so far I love my Ender 3 Pro. I was on the fence between buying the SKR Mini V3 or the 4.2.7 board. I chose the 4.2.7 route because of the hoops you have to go through with the SKR to get it set up properly. The 4.2.7 install was a breeze. It took 20 minutes to swap out the board. TAKE PICTURES FIRST!!! The firmware on my board was actually the correct version even though I had already downloaded it from the Creality website. I also bought a CR Touch when I purchased the printer but could never get it work on 4.2.2 board no matter what I did. I spent countless hours of wasted time so I just left it disconnected from the mainboard. I decided to try it again and actually got it to work with the 4.2.7 board, however, I could not get the Z Offset settings to save on the SD Card. Every time I powered off and on, the stored settings would clear. SO...I left it powered off for a couple of days and tried one last time and magically it now saves properly. At least I hope it lasts. I read this could happen during my 4.2.7 research but I cant be sure it was the board or not. Long story short...it was a great purchase. I can actually leave it on overnight and not hear the constant singing of the steppers. I would definitely recommend the 4.2.7 board over the SKR Mini V3.

It works like is says. Great product.

Got this to up grade my printer came in fast and works great

Terrible

Stepper motors are totally silent now. Print quality is still fantastic. Only trouble I had was flashing the new firmware for my ender 5. But once I got that sorted, its been smooth printing.

This is a great upgrade. I dont have a db meter but after installing the steppers are almost completely silent on my Ender 5, what a huge difference. I followed the YouTube video from Teaching Tech for the motherboard and Marlin upgrade and he walked me through flashing the motherboard with an Arduino Uno which I had on hand already. Pretty straight forward and didnt run into any issues.
