Ok hear me out. V1 and V2 chips are cheap esp if you get like e5-2603 v1's. A stick of ddr3 per CPU is cheap. They're new open box servers for $500 + maybe $50-75 in parts to finish them off. You can get V2's and CPU mine with them too.

You can put 3 GPUs in each too. Here's the spec page Supermicro | Products | SuperServers | 1U | 1027GR-TRF
They're gonna be screamers, but if your gonna mine with GPUs in a DC that's a hellova deal. They've even got Platinum PSUs that are 1800w redundant.
That's not too far off from cobbling a system together and you can build 3 GPUs at a time with IPMI
