A few shots of inside my quad rig ...

First off ... this system seriously SUCKS ! ... SUCKS in dust that is ... :lol: ... look at the amount of dust after about 1 month !
I'm away for about 3 weeks from tomorrow morning ... when I get back I'll take some more shots without the dust ... :roll:





This a little case mod I made ... 2 x 120mm fans one behind the other and mounted in a MDF bracket .... there is nice cover too ... sorry I forgot to photograph that ... :oops:
With the extra air-flow these two fans dropped the temp of the GFX cards by about 8 degrees !

Paddy, is there any advantage to having one 120mm fan mounted directly behind the other? Aren't they going to shift the same amount of air in total anyway?

I love that case!! It's just beautiful. And yeah, I can see where a dust problem could exist.

No idea ... I just figured 2 would have to be better than one ...


I don't know of the dynamics of it, but I do know that Dell servers (PowerEdge 2800s) come with 4 sets of 2x80mm fans that are hot swappable. These servers have 8x300GB SCSI disks in them so they really move the heat.

So maybe there is some use of it after all......
