Hello there, I am looking for some proven rig frames. I use now a home made ones from a plastic containers and they are terrible for component maintenance and just a simple movement with it is a pain. Looking for something durable, easy to build, for 6 graphic cards, for less than 100 €. Any suggestions?

Check out this guy: http://www.wpdezignz.com/blog/crypto-monster-case/

Superb frames he sells and ofcourse inside EU.
He can problem hook you up for around 100 euros.

He also sells his stuff at ebay.

Yep, that's the one I linked to on eBay. We have 5 of his frames and they are extremely well made.

I use just basic homemade wooden shelves, cost me around €30 in wood + screws + electronics (switch, pdu, wiring and remote switches) per 6 rig module. Usually accompanied by 2 or 3 big fans which are ~€10 each, depending on location.

You can build the BBT 6 GPU open air mining frame below for about $40 out of two 8ft pieces of 1/8" x 3/4" angled aluminum, one 8 ft 1" x 3" piece of pine, one 4ft 1" x 1" piece of pine and #8 1/2" self-tapping screws. You can also build it out of all wood if you want to save some money.

6 GPU Frame (Dimension 21" W x 15 3/4"" D x 10 3/4" H):

-First 8ft (96") Angled Aluminum; .75 inch of waste

4x 15 3/4" cuts (63" use) (Case Depth)
3x 10 3/4" cuts (32.25" use) (Case Height)

-Second 8ft (96") Angled Aluminum; 1.25 inch of waste

4x 21" cuts (84" use) (Case Width)
1x 10 3/4" (10 3/4" use) (Case Height)

Im lazy and I went with the Veddha v3c. one unit will hold 6 gpu's, motherboard and 2 power supplies. Two stacked will do 13-15 gpu's if you add a second mounting rail. Thats what im running. 2 rigs with 2 v3c's stacked and a Asus B250 mining expert motherboard.

If you are handy you can build yourself pretty easy but if you are like me who isnt the best at building frames but can figure out how to build computers there are a few options out there.

I have one of these and I love the quality and customer service.

The price on these Veddha frames has dropped almost to the materials would cost to make one. Used to be around $200 now they are only in the upper 70s shipped. https://amzn.to/2GEzTMo

You could fit 6 rigs on one of these, I use it for 4 though. Just cut out some plyboard for the base and hang your gpus using cable ties or string. https://www.amazon.co.uk/dp/B00KCGL4PW/

Check out Spotswood's frames if you want to purchase something that is ready to assemble.

Or if you don't mind paying a premium for what I believe is the nicest frame on the market, check out this seller on eBay.

I think you just build your self, an open air frame rig is the best option for me, because it's very cheap with about 25$, very easy to build, convenient for maintenance and movement. For example, most of my rigs look like this:

If you want something look cool, this frame cost around 65$. But I personally dont really like this frame, to build it, I think it may take few hours while I just need to spend 10 minute to make above frame.

Hello, I think you can do everything with your own hands:
- aluminum corners
- a couple of sheets of dsp for criminals
- Straight arms
- Any mock-up of their internet
and everything is in your hands!!

Sorry mate, cant advise you here on your question, because I'm using for my rigs old home made design from wood)
So far it was proven actually quite well. durable. cheap. can be replicated and repaired if needed, I'm quite ok with that

There you go mate Cheesy

the price is 45Euros, give or take some cents. I do not know how much you would pay for the delivery, but the frame looks really good for this price and seems to be out of steel or aluminium.
