I run mine the same way, but am running the Logysis case

What are cards are you using?
How is that PSU held up over the top of the CPU and heatsink?
What are the temps like with the cover on?

I don't know, I think I'd want more airflow in a case that's holding 6 cards running at 70*c 24/7 - that or just let them hang in the air.

Nice pics! One thought comes to mind....
If this case is supposed to be installed in datacenter type facilities, what will happen to the hot isle/cold isle cooling approach? Looks like the GPUs are breathing out hot air from the front and usually servers do the opposite.
Does this mean that you would want to fill up the whole isle with these units to maintain proper cooling configuration at scale? Or maybe install them backwards in racks?
Either way, I will probably get one just to try because the price seems nice

You can always rack it with the front facing the hot aisle as pretty much all racks will take systems in both directions.
Or you could just what I did with 5 x 1080 ti Founder Editions

I like the fact that the 90 dollar version comes with the fans. Even though the fans suck, having 3 fans I can push to the front for exhaust right away is nice. The modding takes me like 20 minutes and 1 piece of 1x2.
I think that version is much smaller.

Double holes on the mounts fairly close together, so I'm betting 70mm or 80mm as options in the middle mount.
5 x 92mm with the blank spaces would be too wide to fit inside a standard 19" rack case.
Guessing the front mounts are for 3 x 120? Those aren't shown very well.
There is no front mounts for fans, I just placed an old 120mm fan to get an idea if you could mount three 120's there.

That actually looks like a nice case for its designed purpose, which is a high density deployment in a server rack. The price is a bit high, but as you said it is already modded somewhat for GPU mining, so it save a bit of work which is worth something I guess.
I like the pictures you have taken so far, however would you be able to take one or two more detailing how the GPU fits on the bottom support rail a bit better. The question I have are how much clearance is there when the riser board and cables are attached. Also is the bottom rail adjustable at all? From your one picture with the yellow circling it looks like it is with 4 positions possible, but would be nice to have this confirmed.

I disagree about the price at $109.00 it's price is really low considering that almost every mining case is more and some ALOT more, a bare gray matter case is three times as much, and the only ones that are cheaper are the cheap wood and aluminum angle homemade open air cases I see on ebay.
The pics with the red and yellow highlighting are the optional spots that the mounts can be moved to.
The front upper comes mounted in the lower spot and can be moved up.
The rear lower comes mounted in the rear lower spot and can be moved both up and foreword.
The fan mounting bracket comes mounted in the rear position and can be moved one or to spots closer to the gpu's.
I have not received my risers yet, shows to be due Monday.
The gpu just sits on the lower support rail, I already posted a really good pic already, my camera is limited since it cant focus any closer than about 18 inches.
Thanks for the followup. It looks like the bottom support bar might interfere with the USB and Power connectors on the PCIe riser board was my concern, and even this new picture seems to show the same. Maybe the bar is thin enough where those two cables will fit underneath without having to put an extreme bend on them. Looking forward to Monday when you get the risers in!
Yeah, the price isn't super bad I guess, but the shipping does not fall under my Prime free shipping, so that's another $25. Still, I am tempted to order one or two to play around with myself. What type of fans did you order?
My risers will be in Monday,
That bar can be moved forward 1 3/4 inches so that may be enough to have the risers sitting on the top of it, but its easy enought to drill four more holes if thats not enough.
I'm thinking of some "refurb" supermicro 80 mm's.
I think I have an idea for dual power supplys without a ton of modding, just need to get some dimensions and do some measuring.
The pics from last night is just using some unused hardware to get an idea how things will fit.

It will hold probably any six of just about any gpu's with plenty of room around them.
The adjustable mounts for the gpu and center fans are a pleasant surprise.
Depending on the power supply and where the center fan mounting plate is located it may take six or maybe only five center fans.
I bought it from Newegg on sale for $109.00 and that beats the hell out of buying the regular version for $15.00 less then modding it.
The biggest question is the front door and placing fans there, 3 120mm fans would work with hardly any mods or I really think just removing the door and making a plate to mount some fans in its place would be the best option.
I think with the door in place i would probably be too restrictive for cooling more powerful video cards but might be ok for RX560's or GTX 1050 Ti's.
The center fans you do have a bit of flexibility with three mounting locations and being able to mount them in front or behind or maybe both depending on position of the mounting plate, gpu's and power supply.
The fan header is nice.
