Title: Minerilo, open air computer case. Throw away your Milk Crates Post by: muchogas on February 25, 2014, 03:42:11 AM I would like to show you this new product I designed:
http://www.ebay.com/itm/281274780304?ssPageName=STRK:MEWAX:IT&_trksid=p3984.m1423.l2649 https://dl.dropboxusercontent.com/u/66121431/Final.JPG I started off with the milk crates (like probably most of us do), thinking it’s the cheapest way to mount a computer. But it’s actually not that much cheaper, as you have to buy packs of everything (screws, straps, beams, etc) plus the milk crates. I found it being so ugly and so ineffective (specially with 2 PSU's) that I had to think of something else. Aluminum was too expensive, so I ended up going with wood. But pinewood itself is not very pretty (I don’t like untreated wood in general too much), so I decided to apply a finishing + protective stain. I was so happy with the result that I just started selling them 1 day ago. The reason for this post is that I want to offer a cheap alternative of those milk crates to people who normally may not think about buying an open air computer case on Ebay. If somebody is interested I would happily accept Bitcoins, Litecoins or Dogecoins (or any other known currency really), but on the other hand I’m also interested in building good history on ebay. If something goes wrong, I could offer Skype assistance. Another thing that would help me a lot is to know what you think about it. Critiquing it would be helpful as long it’s not done with bad intentions. Title: Re: Minerilo, open air computer case.

If I decide to build another mining rig, you'll definitely be getting my business!

How many PSU's and GPU's are you planning to put in a system? I hope I can make that rig soon too. Hehe.It would likely be a 5 or 6 GPU Rig with 2 PSUs. Title: Re: Minerilo, open air computer case. Throw away your Milk Crates Post by: muchogas on February 25, 2014, 06:46:42 PM For 5 GPU's there is no problem. But for 6 GPU's you will need some kind of fan, because otherwise they will run hot.
I'm running 4 GPU's, 2 PSU's, 1 HDD and a very quiet big fan behind the structure set on its minimum speed and the cards are running in their 60's degrees Celsius. Oh and I'm running around in short sleeves (thanks to the heat generated by my miner), so I probably live in a 80 F ambiance temperature. I'm even thinking of growing some tropical plants ;D Title: Re: Minerilo, open air computer case.
