These 2 rigs of 7950x4 are in my 3rd bedroom that is 10ft X 12ft.  Even with the two windows in the room open the room gets notably warm.  Soon to keep the rest of the house comfortable during the summer I will need to turn on AC.  This leaves me the option to close off this room from the AC and hope the windows can keep the rig cool during the summer or setup an exhaust system.

Ideas for the exhaust system.
-Make a box of Corrugated Plastic over this shelving unit allowing openings for the box fans to intake air into the box. http://www.homedepot.com/p/3-sq-ft-Plastic-White-Corrugated-Sheets-15-Pack-COR-2418-15/202038093#.UYvaDsqZuTI
-2 6" Start Collar With Crimp behind each set of 4 cards. http://www.menards.com/main/heating-cooling/ductwork/round/start-collars/6-start-collar-with-crimp/p-114674-c-6828.htm
-3 6" Standard Gauge elbow. http://www.menards.com/main/heating-cooling/ductwork/round/elbows/6-standard-gauge/p-115326-c-6821.htm
-1 6"x4"x4" Standard Gauge Wye. http://www.menards.com/main/heating-cooling/ductwork/round/wyes-tees/6x4x4-standard-gauge-wye/p-1494470-c-6832.htm
-1 6" ROUND IN-LINE DUCT FAN after the Wye. http://www.menards.com/main/heating-cooling/ductwork/indoor-air-quality/6-round-in-line-duct-fan/p-113772-c-6872.htm
-Some pipe up to the window.  Put a board in the window with a Aluminum Wall Cap for 6" Round Duct. http://www.menards.com/main/bath/bath-fans/aluminum-wall-cap-for-6-round-duct/p-189438-c-5869.htm
-Close the other window in the room and turn on the AC.

I would like to expand this to 4 rigs on this shelf. http://www.amazon.com/Whitmor-6070-267-Supreme-5-Tier-Shelving/dp/B000LRDTYG/ref=sr_1_2?ie=UTF8&qid=1368075114&sr=8-2&keywords=metal+shelving
A lot of this thought stemmed from these two videos. http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=G5f_e4P6gMA http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=NMbq2FB8nDE
