Hey everyone,
I've been mining BitcoinZ for a few months now, and as I've expanded my operation, cooling has become a major concern. My mining room is getting quite hot, especially with summer approaching, and I'm worried about the longevity of my GPUs.
I currently have 8 GPUs (mix of RX 580s and GTX 1070s) running in two rigs, and I'm using basic box fans to move air around. This isn't cutting it anymore as temperatures are reaching 75-80°C on some cards.
What cooling solutions are you all using for your mining setups? I'm looking for cost-effective options that won't break the bank but will keep my hardware safe.
Some specific questions:
- Are server rack fans worth the investment?
- Has anyone tried immersion cooling?
- What's the most efficient way to exhaust hot air from a dedicated mining room?
- Any recommendations for GPU thermal pad replacements?
Thanks in advance for your advice!
