I found this stackable open air case on Amazon... does anyone have it? http://amzn.to/jPdb7eIt looks like it may be a great mining rig case. I may pick one up once I build another rig in the near future. From user : Maxxx on page 6 of this thread I wish there was 8 slots available on that. 4 double cards in an open case. They also sell stackable columns or something like that. Forgot what they call them. You can stack those cases ontop of each other without shelves. I'll see if I can get a pic after this weekend. Gonna have to be early next week tho.

From user : Maxxx on page 6 of this thread Yeah I recommend the test bench, plus the shelving was only like $20. Sturdy, strong and light. Can hold 1 to 2 systems per shelf (with the cases turned sideways). I got it at a local hardware store. The stackable case is in my sig. It's the same case but with longer feet that can lock into the top of another one. Now that summer is coming, I have blackout curtains and a portable AC coming. I've already setup an air purifier and a humidifier as well to keep the air semi-decent. The only light in this place will be the flashing miners.

I found it here: http://amzn.to/mBZU3iHeres another version that doesnt have the backplane, so you could run crazier setups. PLus its alot cheaper at only $34!!! http://amzn.to/mzWGQRThey also have a bunch of crazy other designs too: http://amzn.to/m9yI0phttp://bit.ly/kbHtqfI like this one, I would use it more for a desktop than I would a miner though: http://amzn.to/k3Mra7

What is that, 3x PCI-e 8x extender, plus one PCI-e 16 x extender? Where did you get those cables, and how much did they cost?

From right to left are my 5850, 5850, 5870, and 6870. Running at 1.2 GHsh right now. The extra fans help keep temps at right around 66 deg.

Very nice, but are you not worried about the cards getting very hot in direct contact with the wood? Seriously, even if the cards got up to 100C, wood doesn't self ignite until 300C or above http://www.engineeringtoolbox.com/fuels-ignition-temperatures-d_171.html

Even if the card was at 100C, where it touches would be way less than that.

3x12 Mhash/s Good enough to eat and look like it has room for a fourth card.
