I'm working to set up a mining farm with 7 rigs to start with. Planning on a site which has window access. I'm wondering if the farm can rely on airflow from installing fans on the window 24/7 365 days a year all season, as the outside temperature can get up to 33C at times, but very rare. I want to know if this is possible, of course I will have an AC as back up. But is this avhievable to rely on pure airflow.

Should be viable with enough airflow if your rig is set up for proper cooling of the GPUs.

 If you're in a dry area, might want to consider an evaporative cooler.

I run 9 rigs in Rosewill in a 42U rack and 2 open air rigs in garage where temp is 100F+ or 33C+ with no issues. I have 2 exhaust fans with 3200 CFM total and 4 Windeevents to get rid of hot air.

For quality risers, splitters or 133 CFM fans, please visit my eBay listings,

It is a very humid city. there will be AC installed, but I want to leave it off except for rainy days. Any solutions to cool that saves electricity?

I dont have space for big exhaust fans, any recommendations for a fan that fits within a window? I will be replacing the glass pane with exhaust fans.

Bound to fail, car radiator fans are not rated for 100% duty cycle.

if you use 1 of these inline fans or fans like Marijuana growers use, you'll be fine

http://growershouse.com/phat-fan-12-inch-1708-cfm?keyword=&gclid=Cj0KEQjw9r7JBRCj37PlltTskaMBEiQAKTzTfBXoV2nA9wlVZwgFciNvxsCkN8N9bFw4mLdsumvgO9kaAitR8P8HAQ

Don't know how many cubic feet you're in but average 2 car garage is 3600 cubic feet so the fan above would exchange the air inside of it roughly once every 2 minutes. That's pretty good.
