The big part about 6 80 series cards, is they do put out some heat; and they are large heatsyncs on them. Be sure to have good fans to cool the box they are in, or if open air, you should be fine.
The machine that we built out of a rosewell case; got VERY hot very quick; would start to thermal throttle. Needed to upgrade to high CFM fans to combat that.
No need to screw with the fan curves much; just work on the airflow around the cards and keeping fresh air going to them and you should be fine.

Hello again people, since the last thread has been closed i'll quote myself.
You've got a nice setup there @Philipma1957.

Hello people!!
I been for days reading all posts related and I would like to thank you all for all the great info you're sharing here.
I always been thinking about having my own setup and after reading you it's like I feel ready to spend some cash and atleast give it a try and see how it works.
I'm from Spain, Europe, and some pieces of the gear you recommend along this threads are out of stock and there's no way of obtaining them, especially the MSI Z270 board and ASROCK BTC.
So I still don't know what motherboard I could take (I just choose one, but I think it's too expensive and there should be something cheaper), some advice would be really appreciated.
I think I'm going to start with this:
PSU x1: EVGA-220-P2-1600W --------------- Evga 1300 g2 this is much lower cost and really is a better choice for 3 1080ti gpus
GPU x3: Nvidia 1080 GTX TI ---------------- okay
CPU x1: Intel-BX80662G4400-Pentium-LGA1151 --- okay can you find g4560t or g4600t
MEM x1: Kingston-KVR21N15S8 ---- okay
MB x1: ASRock-Z270-Pro4 -------- can you find this ? https://www.amazon.com/GIGABYTE-GA-Z270P-D3-Crossfire-Motherboard-Motherboards/dp/B01N2V0AHI/ref=sr_1_1?
Somehow if I end up seeing it good and my thoughts are to try to finish the first rig with 6x nvidia 1080 gtx ti, that's why I take that PSU. And also took nvidia for power saving, noise, heat, assorment of algorithms and the most important thing, being capable of outpowering any other gpu in the market.
What are your thoughts for starting and give it a try? Would you change something? Like going RX 580 instead of Nvidia? Motherboard?
Any minor detail to save some money? Smiley
Thanks again and sorry if there's any mistake since my english is not perfect.

First of all, the G4560T or G4600T are more expensive(€50 or 80€ more) that the one I posted atleast here in Europe, so i'm a bit confused since I haven't seen that you use CPU for mining. So I keep trying on taking the cheapest CPU I can find.
Secondly, the Motherboard isn't available also
, I been reading you for days trying out all setups commented but there's no stock. So it has to be any MB not commented before.I checked once again by previous comments and thankfully I saw that I was mistaken with my MB too.
So If anyone knows about any other MOBO which is not the MSI Z270, ASROCK BTC, GIGABYTE Z270 and it's kinda cheap, please tell me
@Philipma1957, why do you think it's not a good idea to have a rig of 5x or 6x nvidia cards? It makes even more expensive to have two rigs with 3x nvidia since I have to take another CPU, MB, MEM and PSU.
Is there any other reason I don't know?
Would be capable the EVGA 1200W of taking care of a 6x overclocked nvidia cards? I think it won't, but yep for the initial 3x it would go.
Thanks for all the other replys @JaredKaragen and @vapourminer, about the risers I knew it but forgot to mention at the post I made. I've got a seller for that, there's no problem
)Also I got some old HDD that I could use to mount. So I think I won't be buying any SSD, unless you tell me that does affect or somehow improves performance on mining.
And well, thanks everyone for the warm welcome, I really appreciate the feedback.
