@bentcrypto
thx mate Smiley just some hard work,research trial & errors should lead to a nice rig build of your own liking but imho, passion is a MUST !
i do own a little 1 man company, so it's a little easier to deal with larger quantities. have some old friends in the IT industry too, that helps.

@FFI2013
thx, you should. they are custom order made for me with some mods i added to them such as pcie headers for power via the breakout board (there's a swtich to power on/off) or just power on/off the power cable or power on/off or reset via the mobo control.

@VyprBTC
that's EWBF, there's a thread here in BCT, add --pec to the bat file & it will auto scroll. atm, i just point them to nicehash as i'm new to nvidia's too.


in the making . . . not completed yet, just some wiring, placement n planning to see if there's anyway or anything that i could improve. now all my "lucky7" rigs comes with dual server psu's !

still messy but here's some fancy "light show" i call it, still lots of further improvements at the new DC/farm. Work In Progress

i've been receiving some pm's lately, appreciate them although some i do not. atm, i ran out of parts, did some orders. will reply when i'm able to do so & when they arrive.








Firstly, gr8 work! I have a question similar to @FFI2013 How you managed to turn on/off the motherboard ? Are you using some custom circuit apart from PICO ATX adapter because pcie power header makes sense in pico atx adapter but you need to power on gpus first with out turning on motherboard and riser otherwise you gpus might below-out.

Also PICO atx adpter won't turn the server psu like in case of normal ATX PSU.

The break-out board you are using has toggle switch to power on but it will turn on the psu but not the motherboard.

What you are using to turn on the motherboard ?

Again lots of appreciation!

very nice.

I have one of his psu kits.

I am running  ½ of a r4  pulling 440 watts at 120 volts.  and it is quiet.

Some 1080 ti    info  the   way to go with them is use msi afterburner and set the tdp to 70%

you are running them pedal to the metal style.  you can get 4 to 1 instead of 3 to 1

drops to 650 vs 725  big power savings and heat


Some mining results on the ti's, might not be the best but dang, they are the kings for ZEC,

Great thread. That wiring is the neatest I have ever seen!

I like your simple setup too Citro.

How do you guys source large amounts of gear? Do you go through a wholesaler or online retail store?
None of the shops in my country stock large amounts of GPU's etc.

That's a good question because I can't even order online because my banks keep hitting me with fraud alerts and then also the online retailers after I clear the fraud alerts are putting their own fraud alerts on me and cancelling all my orders. It's very damn frustrating

Man this is some awesome lounge though! Making me drool!


What miner are you using I like the display on sol/watts and all the data on it - what pools are you using for the Ti's? thanks!

Nice setup I've been wanting to switch over to pico's and server psu's could you share where or which pico's your using and are you powering the risers off the server psu if so how to you control power going to the gpus if the rig crashes Thanks

some fun with Nvidia's . . . the capt has been really bz recently.

these ti's are HUGE & HEAVY compared to AMD RX series, even the 1070's are much bigger but obviously lighter than the ti's
   

not the best photography setup, but still better than snapping a pic on the floor


from the top front & back


Some mining results on the ti's, might not be the best but dang, they are the kings for ZEC, they do very well on ETH too
   

brothers of the 7 pcie slots


more to come soon, the capt has to go back to work, bunch of ti's should arrive shortly & working on some other newly "planned" projects. will be building a full rig of ti's soon on either the z97 gaming 5 or the z170 gaming 5. let's see.

was packing some RX 470's to be shipped to my buddy & the pair of monster ti's arrived with some goodies too.


more to come, happy mining to all

@xleejohnx
i'm the supplier ? LMAO nah, i have my resources & regular supplier. I have been purchasing many different type/brand of psu's from many different sources, i had to work hard to find a reliable supplier but now i kinda like became a supplier myself locally.

@crpt01
i'm from malaysia, commercial rate varies, rates are around 0.08

@Billz007
hmm if you noticed the 2in1 power cord for dual psu setup ? that quiet these screamers, thx for droppingby n the praise !

Long time lurker, one of my first posts.  I have three 6 card rigs (RX4xx Series), looking to expand.  I'd like some more info on those server and pico PSU solutions.  Mainly, how loud are these things?  I work in the IT field and some of these server PSU's are loud, though the newer ones are quite a bit quieter.  I know this isn't a for sale post, but I'm very interested in buying one to try out.  I'm running Corsair 1200w PSU's right now.

Also thank you for all the info you provide in this forum.  People like you are why this community is top notch!   Cheesy

if older version or future power hungry gpu that requires more power such as my 290 trix


i use this format . . . the cables can easily power them. much gpu's ? No Problemo hahaha i don't see any problems powering them up

     


i made my own rig resetter too but don't have much time to fine tune it yet

   


Various server psu's that i messed around with before
