Also looking for some large fans (200mm++)  to put on top of the cards to draw heat out but haven't found so far

Farnell/element14 has them but damn expensive - don't want to spend RM400+ per pc

Hmm if 200mm would need at least 3 to cover 2 Ikea baskets

I need something powerful like a Delta, but in a large size  brows.gif

americans have those white box fans for their rigs.. already discuss with TS many times if he has seen them made for 240v.. too bad they run 110v only..

Yeah I have a standing floor fan, but can't reverse airflow and the motor is at the back

Those box fans would be good, can place on top and get rid of all the hot air

Yeah, they look the same as my 280X Toxic other than they don't light up (the Sapphire logo)

I have one here but it won't booth if I mix it with the 280X at all so will try in another machine tomorrow smile.gif

I'm going to move my PSUs from the front to the sides , as I think they block the airflow from the fan.

Also one annoying thing - I can't seem to get the monitor to power on prior to getting to Windows at all , I need to booth from Flash drive to reduce voltage on the last 2 cards I added  cry.gif

Here's the before, lets see if moving PSUs will help at all biggrin.gif

Modified my miner slightly, zip tied the fan to it and removed the stand so it doesn't need to sit on a cardboard box next to it biggrin.gif

But I think for some reason this decreases PSUs efficiency as it's getting hotter (no more direct airflow onto the PSU) rather than PSUs being mounted in front.

As both identical setups, this one is drawing 1K Watt, the other 900W  blink.gif

Also ... got my 290 running but for whatever reason Cgminer keeps throwing errors about hardware control / fan speeds

Tried MSI Afterburner, Sapphire Trixx, open hardware monitor, GPU-Z

NONE of them can read the GPU temps, fan speed or anything ...  shakehead.gif

All drivers up to date, so I'm a bit  rclxub.gif

oh my.. it was running so smoothly and only slightly warm on sunday evening.. sweat.gif

edit, oh is this the 2nd rig? biggrin.gif

after going through all the post, i have a question to ask...
seem like for mining rig, i can use different cards like example mixing 7870 , 280 and 290 in same rig, right? because mining doesn't need crossfire, right?
*
can use.. but better all same type..
