          Haha! Let the leccy meter spin! :)

          Looking good though i think you’ll need a desk fan blowing cool air through the cards. As i’m sure you’ll discover, the winforce cards blow their heat everywhere and it usually gets sucked back in again. Try to keep the temps below 80c. Around the 75c or below is preferred.

            I have a few monster box fans. You bet, looking forward to experimenting.

              definitely play with fan angle and positioning. i found that i could reduce speed (aka noise) and temps by finding the airflow sweet spot.

              setting the cards at an angle actually helps also. the little lip right below the top of the crate is perfect for holding the GPUs. the notch for the screw sits great in the groove. it also allows them to slide side to side for further airflow optimization. of course, you’ll have to support the end of the cards with something. 16"(48/3) x 1/2" diameter wooden dowel works well, just zip-tie the ends to the crate :P

                I must try this on my rig, I could make angled aluminum wedges to screw the onto, to give a good angle. Will post a pic when I get it done and if it does explode.
