what do you think about it?
is the space between gpus enough when in- and output fans are installed?
maybe someone has purchased this case and can say something about it?
thanks

I have a similar case, although it's 13 GPU's and does them all across the top row, so slightly higher density but otherwise is identical to this case.  The cards all stay cool (it's running 13x 1070's in my case), so even with their fairly cheap fans it does well - the biggest problem I had with the build was just the amount of cables needed inside the case - it's one of the ones I really dread having to work on when something is wrong (thankfully it's been pretty reliable).  So apart from the build time it's not a bad case - although I paid about $300 shipped with two Chinese PSU.

Not impressed with the spacing between cards, if you push them past max efficient power setting I see a high probability of it having overheating issues.

Forget wide cards like the Aorus line entirely.

I'm no longer legendary just in my own mind!

You can build amazing cases with $20 worth of of 3/4 angled Aluminium. If you can build a rig, the frame is way easier.

If I see the airflow of that Rig case, it will be suitable for Reference (for AMD) / Founder (for NVIDIA) Edition Cards. In another word, that kind of case suitable for one direction airflow cards.

when a motherboard has 12 slot PCIe then all slot using 12 GPU on the casing. I saw that casing, 6 GPU placed on the 1st floor below and another 6 above 2nd floors.
while the distance is too close between the 1st and 2nd floor. I think a circulation air flow in the casing doesn't efficient although has the fan.when a GPU has a problem such one or two GPU doesn't detect. of course, will difficulty.

Normally this is for 10 cards with 10 stage (you could see another image on that store). From airflow sides, this Rig Case is suitable for single fan cards with one direction airflow, backside fan will push hot air, and the front fan will drawing hot air. But yes, it spaces to small for troubleshooting.

Just building a similar rig. Cable routing nightmare, and tricky to troubleshoot, but looks neat once complete. Fans are louder than you think - nearest gpu equivalent to an asic!

If you have one or two rigs those would be nice.  Although shop around at ali, they have ones that are better designed with better spacing, etc.  The prob is shipping is ridiculously expensive unless you live in the area.  The good ones are definitely worth it at 100 bucks a pop in my opinion, but not an extra 200 bucks each unit for shipping, no way.

For that price you can make your own custom and better one, also you can customize your spacing between your cards. It's recommended to keep distance between each card 4~6cm.

Personally not worth for the price + you should pay for shipping.
