Running an ender 5 and while my board technically works fine, the USB socket popped off and despite my best efforts the joint holders are too damaged to solder a new one.
I mean maybe it’s about time, I had lost the original config file anyways. Does anyone have an idea of what’s “good” these days? Not really looking to spend more than $200 if I can help it
I did a board swap on my mk3s with one of those, other than doing a few connector changes perfect replacement and they’re really reasonably priced. Steppers run way quiter as well which is another benefit
The steppers run quieter? I didn’t realize this was possible from just a board change
Not sure which drivers came stock on your Ender 5 board, it’s possible it already uses “quiet” drivers.
4.2.7 is a silent mainboard.
AFAIK TMC2225.
They come with 2209’s which tend to be quieter
I have the skr mini e3 v3 which has worked very well.
Easy to setup in Klipper too if that’s your thing
