I have a lot of Open rigs for sale. 7 Total, with Asrock H81 Pro Mobo, LGA Intel processor + cooler.
Ram is an option if needed. It is sold with Raisers as well.

In my opinion these rigs are all very badly designed because only the first card will be kept cool while the ones behind it will overheat.

The best is to use a large milk crate or shopping cart where you can hang the GPUs at different heights. So one GPU isn't feeding hot air into the next one.



Its not been a problem with my rigs. And if you run them in a hot environment, what you typically do is have a box fan blowing between the GPU's. But with outdoor ranging at 0-10C so far its not a problem.

I need box fans in the window to create airflow however and i think i need new, less noisy one. (As in they vibrate a lot even though i'm using absorbant padding and i can hear them through the walls/ground/bed.

I don't think it includes the risers, and the ones in the pic are ribbon which you DO NOT want.
Also most modern USB risers will not work with that design if you look carefully.

150 is too much, if you consider shipping, i can pay 100 at max no more sry

Definitively buy from Ebay before paying 150$ + materials + shipping. Can find metal ones for 100$ + ship on Ebay.

where? on ebay they are all expensive, there is one that is asking 200 for shipping lol he is crazy

99$ + shipping, i dont know what the shipping come down to, to where you live;

More a barometer for price than a prospective purchase, but you never know i guess.

see the shipping he is charging 86  for shipping alone, at this point i can buy one air flow 540 and make it my open frame, by attaching the gpu on the edge with some cable ties

someone has done this with the haf-xb, but with the corsair it's even better i think

Keep in mind with 6 gpu you may need 2 power supplies.
Really try p.v.c. and 2 hours of your time.  It will take a couple days to work all the kinks out of the rig and software.

there are 1500w-1600w psu available, they can run easily 6 x 970 or even amd card

When you need 10 of these, it gets very time consuming. I'm thinking of doing one out of wood, though. The PVC i found was expensive and not solid enough, as in it would bend. I could maybe transition to Aluminium later but. Yeah i'd rather fork over 50$.

Haven't clicked your links, but I've got an open air case I'd be willing to part with I think.

if you're interested let me know and I'll clean it up and take some pics. (not that it is dirty, just been sitting around in my garage for a while since I've been mining on HDDs only aside from random ASICs.)

of course i'm interested, but i need pic, my links are safe they redirect to other forum just that

ah yes, but i like this more https://litecointalk.org/index.php?topic=14940.0, also for some reason he does not accept bitcoin

Yeah this is also exactly what i'm looking for and i know where to get the parts and how much they cost, but i feel rather lazy building it myself. I'd much rather let someone make a bit of profit on it. But 70$ per is already pushing it. There's like 10$ of materials there.

can you do one for me i can pay you 50 for it

No i dont have the time/energy to do it myself, thats why i'd want to buy it done. Also i'm in Canada, you're probably in the US? Just double shipping would be more than 50$.
