Well, usually you have a dehumidifying cooler in a server room. It will make everything worse...You know the dust you blow out of computers? Imagine if it was wet...And your miner was rusty...
Not to mention wet air and high amounts of electricity don't mix.
humidity is really bad for computers...swamp coolers are massive humidifiers.
Thought they were fine in dry climates like Arizona if you kept the humidity levels around 50%
nice work guys, but what is up with all that wood affection?
IMHO, thats a potential disaster waiting to happen.

Wow a lot of crazy entries........! Oh yeah I took down the advert of the rack case gpu mount, I agree it wasnt really appropriate. I mean, he can show it off in the contest if he wants, just not as an overt advert...And yes, building your own will always be cheaper ! Buy parts on sale, buy second hand what is less important warranty wise and ROI will always be better.
Old DopeaMINE Case by Red Harbinger finally put to good use.
These were crowdfunded on Indiegogo back in the 1st GPU day, but then were shipped when GPU mining was over....until ETH came around and resurrected GPU mining.

true, how about a pile in the middle of the floor? 
save space, half of the room is where i dry clothes and a desktop PC(also a miner) for remote management...and the horizontal alignment for blowing heat out of the windows (push-pull). racks don't provide long horizontal alignment to the window and saving a few bucks from buying racks
planning to build a swamp cooler in the other half of the room too.

damn son, we've got a winner on the macgyver front...
I think you should dangle everything directly from the ceiling.
I think you should dangle everything directly from the ceiling.
the purpose of wall mounting boards and PSUs was to save space, having easy access for troubleshooting, push-pull config.
also notice there is a fan in the right side...on the left side a fan serves as an exhaust out of the window(not in the pic)...it is a push-pull config...
dangling from the ceiling is not easy to access, walls are sturdier, and you will have lighting issues.

holy crap man thats alot of setups thought my single one was rough... i do like that idea though wall mounted boards
let me join 
It's not a very unique rig though...Kind of asinine for him to derail the thread with something we've seen 100x over.
Seriously, there is only so many ways you can cram 6+ gpu's into a 4U case...if their model was so great or special he wouldn't be advertising here.
The real problem though, is that he wants $2500 for $1600 worth of last gen gear. What a dick.
Edit: lol I mean 2900-3300 for 1600 worth of gear.
Lets break it down.
Used 4u case: $50/FREE
mobo/cpu/ram combo $60
PSU: $140
8 risers: $50
ethos ssd $40 or a $10 usb.
8x RX 470 $1600
dang just built his rig for less than 2k..

Aries....Well you aren't eligible for the contest 
I'll keep your advertisement on the thread, because it is a very nice rig. Although I advise people to visite my site if they need help, and to build their own rigs, which is kinda the point of this thread too.
