Official Creality New Upgrade Motherboard Silent Mainboard V4.2.7 for Ender 3 Customized and Non-Standard Matching,Ender 3 Silent Mother Board

This board is quiet. Installed easy.

I was hoping this motherboard would keep the noise level down and I wasnt disappointed. Install wasnt too bad. Just take your time and remove the glue from all the connectors before yanking them out. As far as the firmware goes i upgraded to marlin 2.0 and learned how to make changes to some of the menu items as i had with the original board. Lots of info online for that stuff.

Ender3 is almost totally silent all you can hear is the fans definitely worth the upgrade night and day difference highly recommend

After installing the loudest part of my printer is the fan!

Wife approved. Should be standard on these printers. Print quality improved a lot too. It is very quiet now!

It took me a while to figure out how to install the software but overall it is a great board to make my printer quiet compared to how it came out of the box.

I have a standard Ender 3. Not a Pro or V2 or Max. Just an Ender 3 and this was the easiest/best upgrade I have done so far. I upgraded the hot end and cooling fans to the noctua fans to reduce noise and that helped a lot but I cant get over how much quieter it is after installing this silent board. Basically the printer is silent now and can run all night and not disturb anyone. Hard to tell if the prints are better. I was printing really well before the upgrade and that hasnt changed. Now just great prints and silence. Amazing.

After hours of trying to update the firmware I realized I hasnt having any success because the bootloader was not installed as described. Tried both .bin files via the SD card and .hex files via direct USB connection. Both update methods worked no problem on my old board but not this one. Quite a bummer as this was supposed to an upgrade over my old board so that I could use the CR touch probe. But, with no bootloader to add the touch firmware, this thing is no better then my old board.

I upgraded my ender 3 pro from 8 but to this 32 bit board, and that was a big improvement for printer performance, and printing quality. I wish if they included SD card with the board, and an easier way to access firmware

Its a shame Creality did not ship this board with all their printers. I had to purchase this 4.2.7 board after my display and SD card wouldnt work right after installing a CR Touch probe on my Ender 3 Pro. The 4.2.2 board and the official updated CR Touch firmware off Crealitys website are trash. Overall Im pleased with the display and the SD card reader both coming back to life and functioning as they should after installing this 4.2.7 board. But I shouldnt have to do that just because I bought a CR Touch. Do I recommend this board? Im hesitant to say a definitive No, but if it werent for the SILENT added benefit of this board, then no, I would not whole heartedly recommend this board. Im keeping it because my Ender 3 Pro now lives in my living room desk, right next to my 15.6 gaming laptop that I use to print via USB with. So I definitely appreciate the quietness of this board. If you have your printer in the basement and noise is not a concern, then maybe you can save yourself $50. Another consideration is that my prints actually looked better before I installed the CR Touch on my Ender 3 Pro. So, buy this if like me, youve had issues with your 4.2.2 board after installing a BL / CR Touch with your display and SD Card, and you want nearly silent X Y Z motors. Cheers!
