Title: If I wanted to build a single tower for Bitcoins.... Post by: MagicBit15 on March 14, 2013, 11:03:52 AM If I wanted to build a single tower for bitcoins, is this plausible? Or a single unit with maybe 8 to 16 gpus? My big worry is honestly noise and heat because I live with other people. Money is not so much a problem. I just want to start contributing to mining and join a pool. I have been into bitcoin since about fall? of 2012? I believe. So I was wondering is this feasible if I just wanted to do this rather than have a gigantic rig or something i need like a huge heat vent for.
I just want to know if this is plausible. Looking mostly around 8 GPU's. Thank you!! Title: Re: If I wanted to build a single tower for Bitcoins.... Post by: Gator-hex on March 14, 2013, 03:19:55 PM You can get XL cases and XL-ATX motherboards with 7x PCI-E on.

Failing that just buy a small Server Cabinet. www.ebay.com/sch/i.html?_trksid=p5197.m570.l1313&_nkw=server+cabinet Title: Re: If I wanted to build a single tower for Bitcoins....
