I need a solution for 50 with or without fans


Three of these would be pretty darn compact:

Uhhh! Me too Smiley

Sexy!

Do you think its a bit too generous with the space at the side though? I am going to run these using one standard ATX PSU so i need space for that, two USB hubs and two tiny TPlink controllers only (taking 5V power from the PSU too).

Or - I need something to house 60pcs miners plus 3 ATX PSU, 6 usb hubs and 6 TPlink controllers?

https://bitcointalk.org/index.php?topic=74397.msg5500849#msg5500849


What are the dimensions of the USB hubs and controllers?

My hubs are supplied by lightning asic (might be different for different resellers) and are 120mm x 80mm x 20mm

TP link style controllers are 58mm x 58mm x 18mm

Three of these would be pretty darn compact (2x 200mm fans):





It's an interesting idea but only if you mine scrypt...you have stacked 5 module so in sha256 each stack is 300watt.
There's no way to dissipate 600watt (2 stack) with a common 20" case fan (that fan seems the antec big boy)... they will burn like an exposed uranium rod  Grin

I thought it was obvious...yes, this design is for scrypt mining only.   Cheesy

Well since you showed a corsair 1200W I tought you would use the modules also in dual-mode  Smiley  
In scrypt only mode a single good 600Watt atx psu or a couple of standard industrial psu will be enough so why have all that free space on the rig?
In any case I'm trying too to scretch a model rig for myself (40 modules) and  I like your displacement because it's probably the best way to manage neatly the mess that 80 cables are able to create  Shocked but my fear it's really to run for mistake the modules in dual-mode...

Probably all of you already know that but if you bypass the controller and want to connect all modules to a pc using the custom cpuminer all the cores will ne on and is not still yet possible disable the BTC cores...I hope for a firmware patch soon because I really would like to control the full rig remotely  Roll Eyes

Again, not that much free space.

I plan on building a small batch of the Gridseed cases this weekend.  

Send me a PM, indicating which version and quantity you are interested in (A, B, or C)?  See OP: https://bitcointalk.org/index.php?topic=476224.msg5250985#msg5250985

Note: All models can be stacked.

How do the units not fall through? What holds each unit in place?

Nice frame BTW.

Thanks.

The miners rest on a "lip" formed by the different widths of the flat bar:

I'll order a Model B if you are making another batch.  I'm a repeat customer.  I bought a Bitfury frame from you last year and love it.  Wish I'd bought 4 more because my other Bitfury rigs look nasty without the case.
