Finally getting around to posting my pictures. 8+MH/s Scrypt 200GH/s SHA-256 with a Bitmain S1 All located at a Data Center, nice quiet house. Definitely not the prettiest thing, but I works. Full Modular is the way to go, and that escaped me in the beginning.

Quick question,
Running two 6950's at the moment. One from sapphire and the other is MSI.
One is at 70c stable the other is +-78c
Are these "okay" temps for these cards?

What is your opinion about those iceQ turbines compared to usual 3fan aftermarket coolers? Are they same quiet or not?

1) I don't think of HIS as one of the better brands for buying AMD GPUs. ASUS, Gigabyte, Sapphire, and MSI are the best. I stay away from XFX, Diamond, VisionTek, and HIS. We've got some PowerColor ones that are decent, but they're a reference design, so not much difference there. 2) HIS hasn't made any of those blower turbine coolers in a while. Now, they're all the IceQ X2, which is a pretty standard twin axial fan setup.

Here's my 6 x 280X GPU RIG with 4 x HIS IceQ X2 Boost + 2 x Sapphire Toxic running on Win 8.1 Preview. [img ]https://i.imgur.com/gfTV0tp.jpg[/img] [img ]https://i.imgur.com/7YEIf0w.jpg[/img] [img ]https://i.imgur.com/3M2W4lM.jpg[/img] Why are two of them running so much slower? You identified which two it is? What I mean by that is the order doesn't make sense, but you have 4 of one brand and two of another. Are the Sapphire ones the slow ones? I know those are capable of much more than that.

Just got the Sapphire cards a couple of days ago so I'm still fiddling with the settings, also had issues with powered risers and non powered riser in terms of which PCI slot I was connecting them to. At times the mainboard wouldn't pass the post stage... So I'm using 3 powered risers and 3 non powered. But the biggest issue was to get Windows 8.1 to work with 6 cards, 5 was fine but the 6th came up with error 43, detected fine but couldn't mine with it. So then I used Techpowerup driver 13.1 then 13.12 and somehow I got the 6 cards detected as 7900 serie cards instead of R200 series and I could finally mine with 6 of them. In reply to your question 1 of the HIS and 1 of the Sapphire cards are mining at less speed than they are able to... And still trying different settings to see if I could get them to go a little faster but without much luck yet. If anyone has any recommendation I'll be happy to listen. Overall I'm running about 0.5MH/s slower than I could but I can live with it. Have to say it's been a very interesting learning experience and happy to have 6 cards mining on the same board. If I get them all mining at least at 750 KH/s I will post here how I did it.

Waiting to receive 5 more risers to get to 9x R9 290 on this rig (~7500 KH/s for ~3000W). 2 MOBO and will be 3 PSU. Cheap wooden prototype case. Will stack 3 like this, hopefully not torching the place Did you have trouble getting your R9 290s running stable? I have nothing but trouble with 4x even with the latest drivers. BAMT won't go into Xorg with more than 1 card and Windows crashes as soon as I get to 3. 280x's work fine... Everyone has trouble with 290's. If you aren't recompiling cgminer or using one with a pre-modified ADL library you probably won't get them to work. The 290 has powertune 6, or something like that. The 280 uses powertune 5, which is what the 79xxx series used. Cgminer/bamt are built around powertune 5, so the calls and commands the 290 expects never come. This is why it'll bluescreen out on windows if you press "q" to quit. 280x's didn't work on BAMT for over a month, not unless you recompiled it with the 13.11 beta drivers yourself. The 290 situation is similar, but worse. Much thanks for the bump in the right direction! Now I got some thing to try. From what I've read, I can most likely pull it off... Hours of Googling did not lead me to this. THANK YOU I am currently running a XFX R9 290 using Xubuntu 13.10 with the newest AMD Beta drivers, CGminer 3.7.0 and pulling around 876 KHash/sec. This blog post should help you out some if you need more info. http://www.ohmpie.com/mining-on-an-r9-290-in-linux/

Physically set them up, but they have 24/7 support if I need a hard reset.
