Hi,

Do you ship to the UK? Reason I ask is I'm contemplating doing a small watercooling setup for a couple of gekko USB miners running from a raspberry pi and wanted to have it contained in one unit with the res/pump, rad, pi, USB hub etc all mounted in the frame.

Yes, we ship worldwide.  You probably want a full-blown test bench: http://spotswoodcomputercases.com/wp/?page_id=531 


Nice one thanks spotswood I'll take a look at your site and see what best suits my needs  Wink

How would you go about using this frame for r9 295x2 card with radiators? I have 10 of these cards and looking for a frame that would nicely hold the card and radiators so air cooling is efficient in the same direction.

I would recommend a custom solution based on the standard "wide" or "deep" versions of these.  How many cards and PSUs per motherboard?


ATM one MB with 3 cards, but using win7 and can't get more to cards detected even though MB has 6 slots. I was going to try Linux and see if I can get 6 cards on the MB running which would be 12 GPU since each card is 2 GPU's. ATM using EVGA 1600 Plat PSU for 3 cards, if I can get more then 3 on the MB, then I would use 2 x 1300 EVGA or 2 x 1600 EVGA. If all 6 cards work on the MB, then prob use 3 X 1300 EVGA and use the 1600 on another rig. How much would a custom setup run me?

An extra-extra wide version of the "deep" mining tray would be ~$225:

Does anyone have any build logs or configurations for using one of these frames for a giant vanitygen miner for making larger vanity bitcoin addresses? I currently use just a single GPU and am targeting 6 character addresses for myself but if i could find a build for say a 6 GPU vanity address rig and target 8 or 9 charecter address i would for sure get one of these frames to house it in a heartbeat.

Received my wide mining case frame today for my Nanos, looks good and seems very strong.

Got pics?


Here is a pic of Nanos on wide mining case frame  Smiley

So yea, Rich is by far one of the best case or custom case builders around.

He has been doing this for a long time , and I ordered a few of my first gpu rigs from him back when mining litecoin lol.

Here is a custom creation he very recently built or me, and was very patient going over every detail for the perfect fit.

building the shell:




populating:





Each tier slides out individually, there are 4 tiers in a rack, for a total of 8 GPU rigs (6 GPU's per rig, 2 rigs per tier).
 
I am still working on populating them all, but the workmanship was superb, and I will always recommend Rich to anyone looking for a custom case.  Smiley

Thanks!

Can you tell me how wide the lightweight version is?

Exactly the same as the standard wide version (for two PSUs):  23.5″ x 10.75″ x 11.5″ (W x D x H)

Added a light weight version of the "wide" mining tray for only $105, plus shipping.  The assembly for this is a bit easier than the standard tray and lighter for reduced shipping charges, yet nearly as stiff/strong as the all extrusion version.

Is there a suggested min. length for the GPUs?
Finally I managed to assemble the rig (not easy when doing it for the first time and maybe I did something wrong), but my Sapphire Radeon R9 380 GPUs seem to be too short for laying on the "back" beam.
So they can only being held by the screws on the front beam, I am not really happy with that. Or did I assemble something wrong (so an answer to my question above would be appreciated)?
Kind regards

The GPU support beam posts can be fastened to the *side* of the middle motherboard beam, as shown in this pic:
