I will provide DIY manual, but a bit later
DIY manual (click on image):
my sweet rig..
My rig is a 24/7 outdoor rig and I have not had any negative experiences with bugs. I assume the fans keep the bugs from crawling into the heat sinks. The rest is very hard to short because of the resistance of the bugs body.

I like it! how many insects did you end up slaughtering?
no insects at all, it seems they stay away from it
(in fact, my area is not insect intensive, mainly flies?)
you could also try to protect from insect by adding the metal netting from bottom
(that material is not really affecting cooling)

edit: If a lot of people post their rigs, I may end the contest earlier than in one month. I also might do 1st place, 2nd place and 3rd place prizes. Or maybe Most original, Most functional, Most ghetto, etc.
most orginal, you say...
Ok, my outdoor rig passed the winter test perfectly, so it seems I may disclose it now...
(all weather condition proof, from -20 to +30 Celsius degree tested, no extra cooling needed)

wooo first time I ever saw that one. pretty slick.
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.
Home made wood cabinet, takes a lot of effort lol. nice.
And I deleted the last comment. You can speak your mind, but i'd prefer more than a few words to explain your thoughts.

Still a work in progress, just started this build this week. Only have 2 out of 10 Rigs in it so far. Cooling is a rear mounted box fan that pulls air through the cabinet. Small fans only there cause my motherboards require them. This is also my first time ever sharing a image of any setup LOL.

haha cavalier your setup is good and reminds me of my own.
home miner master race!

yea i also run a antminer s2 only at night to keep kiddos room warm while sleeping
2 scrypt miners
1 x11 miner
3 sha256 miners
3 zec miners
totaling 5 different software running on the pc at same time but its fun playing with usb / graphics card mining

noice, extra points for the huge mix of different mining hardware lol

some reason it will not show up on here
In that picture you can see on top of that pc a gridseed 5chip orb mining scrypt and a du-1 x11 usb miner
below that is the pc
outside the pc is
r7 270 graphics card on a ribbon riser
Strix rx280 beside that
then r9 380
these are mining zec
to the right of that is 3x futurebit moonlanders mining scrypt
and also 3x gekko science compac sticks (would be 2 more but getting repaired by sidehack) mining sha256
once i can get this rig stable im planning on building a custom box case where i can use only a single home style box fan to cool everything down better then the usb / 12V fans i have going right now but this is all testing
once i get this setup ill be able to work on my burst hdd miner i have it running on my gaming pc but im making a new mobo with linux to see if i can get it running better

wooo0000 good stuff,this competition is going to be tightttttt.
-Really like those usb fans, thats quite original !
-...Is that...Is that a dishwasher rack for drying dishes ?
-Rack mount rigs are getting quite popular these days. Good for you for using blower type gpu's, they exhaust out the back.
-Oh damn GPU's with home-made fans on the heatsink, thats awesome. I have one card like that. cooling is so much better.
I've edited the competition info, instead of end of march, I may decide to end it early if we get enough submissions. I also may do 1st place, 2nd place, 3rd place prizes too. Depends on how many people post their rigs. Happy mining !

Upgrading to IBM 2880w PSU at the bottom of the image soon
