Title: cheap 4way SLI/CF case
Post by: Endeavour79 on June 18, 2011, 10:59:13 PM
Hi.. what are your recommendations for a cheap case supporting 4way SLI/Crossfire with the MSI 890FX motherboard?

Cheers
End.

the problem with quad sli is not the volume itself, but rather the cooling and power.
assuming you have a strong enough power supply, and that the GPU will be OCed to best be used for mining,
you need to think about a water cooling solution. otherwise, you will not use the GPUs to full extent.
and if that is the case, it wont be cheap, but a decent full tower will do the trick.

I´ve just ordered the Thermaltake Armor+ Black Steel Case VH6000BWS which has 10 expansion slots and a good cooling. Have a 1000W PSU which should be enough for 4xHD5830 (max 175W each).
