Thanks, this was very informative and helpful
Not sure if you noticed GKG, but no one has received their openrigs order. Not saying he's scamming, just that shipments from South Arica not only cost a lot, but take 2+ months... (longer than shipping EMS from China)
oooh! sorry, didn't know
And also thank you. i was thinking of placing a order

I made this out of wood for ~$5.00, so if you live near a lowes or home depot, you can just buy screws and 1x4's and you're set.
Does anyone have a PDF print out or link to a website that has the exact placement of the screwholes of the ATX mobo's? I had to take my mobo and use a sharpie before putting in the holes.

thx for the guide!
Has no one bought any supplies locally for this? In the US that is.
This looks pretty exact: http://www.homedepot.com/p/Everbilt-48-in-x-3-4-in-x-1-16-in-Aluminum-Square-Tube-40630/202183563
The corner connectors though.... not sure
Yeah the connectors are my issue as well.
Brunner ships super fast even though the shipping/handling is a bit high (it was top notch though). I believe the cheapest shipping got everything to me in 2 days and the order processed the same day as ordering.
In the future though, I'd just grab the 4 ft tubings since the UPS guy had some fun getting the 8 foot ones into my apartment

Finally built my first. Used a hacksaw and edges came out a little uneven but it still gets the job done
Thanks OP!

Anyone know if these connectors are available at home depot, lowes or ace hardware?
Here's my rig, 1x6970, 2x6950 and 1x7970 hashing at 2.1MH/s. I ve made it from iron parts and not alluminium and i use 2 psu's, one bronze for mobo and 2x6950 and the other is silver for 7970 and 6970. The dimensions are 25cm longer so it can fit the 2 psu.
Very nice heavy and solid rig build patrida!!!
I came here from insomnia.gr to see the pics!!!
APSOGOS!

Thanks for this wonderful guide, temperatures dropped 5 degrees celcious after 'moving' from a plastic crate to this.

in the last image you can see the green and black wire jumpers in order to connect the 2 psu together and power on at the same time with button press.

Awesome lots of info am too lazy to try that on my own
I should have got the grey connectors.
Nice setup. What do you use to boot the OS? lan boot or you use a HDD?
Thanks for the directions.
So, I used your sizes (a bit modified) and I even used Brunner ...the supplier you linked to. What I did differently was give them the sizes I needed and they cut it for me...only .69 cents a cut.
I also decided to use a regular case for the bottom..was just easier to fit everything in and comes with power buttons and all..only cost me $39 (X-Dreamer3) ...As such, I had to make it higher...but those numbers above allowed me to figure out the height for the cards.
A problem with my way was...it's now two separate pieces and difficult (but not impossible) to move.
