Hey, guys. I've been doing some experimenting with techniques to make mining rigs easier to build and cooler. I found some products that worked for me, and want to offer them to everyone here.




This is a short PCI-E riser. Put one of these in a PCI-E slot, then put the card in the riser. This allows more airflow between the card and the motherboard. It's tall enough to add roughly 3/4" additional space, but short enough to stay sturdy.

On one of my systems with 4 6950s, using these to stagger the height of every other card, the overall temps of all 4 cards dropped around 6C, which allowed another 8% overclock.

0.35BTC each, I have about 20 left.





This is a pretty rare PCI-E power adapter, letting you use a SATA power connector from your power supply instead of the annoying old style Molex connectors. Converts a single SATA power connector to a 6-pin PCI-E connector. Don't fight with splitters or poorly fitting connectors, these slip in and lock securely.

0.30BTC each, I have about 30 left.





Very high quality dual molex to dual 6 or 8-pin PCI-E connectors.  

0.30BTC each, I have about 10 left.




This is the craziest case fan I have ever seen. I plugged it in to give it a test before screwing it down, and the torque from the motor made it jump across my desk. It's heavy, well built and moves more air than I thought possible. 2 or 3 times the airflow of the previous "high performance" fans I bought, and roughly 5x the CFMs of the best fan that the local computer parts store sells. I bought more than I ended up needing, because they worked so well.

1BTC each. I have 8 now, can maybe get more. SOLD OUT



Free shipping with orders of 3BTC or more to anywhere in the world. Send me a PM here if you're interested in any of this. I'll ship immediately after receiving payment.

I'm happy to answer any questions, or take any pictures/measurements to see if they'd work for you.

It claims 133.6 cubic feet per minute of air, 45.9 dBA of noise, and 0.6A of 12V current. It uses a 3 pin motherboard power connector, with 300mm of cable (roughly 12") as well as a molex -> fan power adapter. It comes with screws, too.

It is ridiculously heavy. I'm pretty sure it could snap a pencil while spinning, it's got that much torque.

The best fan I was able to find prior to this one was approximately 70CFM.

I have 8 leftovers right now, and can check on getting more from our distributor if you need more than that, but I'd have to check on pricing.

Note that I said that I had some leftover stuff that I was trying to sell, not saying that I had pricing and shipping contracts that were better than Newegg has. Smiley

I paid more than that for the fans (Newegg was out when I went shopping), had to pay shipping for it to get here to me, plus i'm throwing in shipping if you buy 3. I'm just trying to get close to what I paid total for this stuff, plus what it'll cost to send out. At the moment 1BTC = $15.43, so we're not exactly talking a huge difference here between this and the prices you found.

I'm also accepting bitcoins, which Newegg isn't.  Grin

By all means buy from somewhere cheaper if you can find it, but if you have bitcoins in your pocket right now and want any of this stuff, I'll hook you up.

I didn't mean to point out the OP was overcharging, I frankly didn't even run the comparisons.

I apologize to the OP.  It looked like demand for his items was outstripping his supply, I was just pointing where items could additionally be found and for what price.

I'd FAR rather pay with BTC than USD.  So, that alone is worth whatever premium he may have been charging (which after this weekend, may not even be a premium).  Also, as I pointed out, he has some unique items that cannot be found elsewhere easily.

Please purchase from the OP before placing orders with a large corporation.  Support Bitcoins.

Updated first post to show quantities left, and lowered the prices to hopefully tempt someone into clearing out what I have left. Smiley
