I have two questions for crypto miners
1. I'm looking into a server case for mining rig but their price are way off to me or let me say I dont want to be cheated, what is the normal price for a server case that can contain 8 GPUs.
2. Extra cooling for on an open case do they really work? I've never used one and now that we have hot weather here I think its a good time to apply them.
https://minerdude.com/product/minerdude-x8ultra-plus/very high quality designed for 8x cards 3090 and it uses 100-240 volts $999
So if you have 8x 3090's and 240 volts it would be worth getting.
I have 2 of them they do about 880mh each
let me find some others that will do 120 and 240 volts.

om x8ultra version for $825 and a discount if you pay in btc this has a lessor psu if you are using weaker gpus.
om x8ultra version for 935 with a better psu. if the gpu's pull more power.
all three are high quality and work well I own all of them. be sure you buy ones with the server plus and be sure you have proper power ie 240 in most but not all cases.
I have 13 working cases 3x 8 and 10 x 12. and about 150 gpus . some are not in those cases.
all of my cases work well. One had some shipping damage I repaired it.
The nice thing about these cases is 2 will fit in the right garage and you are done.
If you search around you can find cheaper versions.
