I am looking into building a couple of mining rigs to mine Ethereum. I wanted to build a rig in a rack mount case to put in my rack.
I was looking into cases and saw that Rosewill makes one, the RSV-L4000C. It allows you to mount the GPUs at the front of the case (Rosewill RSV-L4000C - 4U Rackmount Server Case / Chassis for Bitcoin Mining Machine, Supports 6~8 Graphic Cards - Newegg.com). My main concern is the cooling of the GPUs and the rest of the computer components, as you have the GPUs pushing the hot air out the front and the rest of the server pushing air out the back.
The question is how to cool these with the cover on it? I want to use the normal airflow of cold air in the front and the hot air out the back. But the GPUs have fans blowing the hot air out the front. Any ideas?
