8 GPU Open Air Mining Kit - Easy to Assemble Case with Optional Fans and PCI-E 16x to 1x Risers - Open Air Frame Compatible with 6 GPU and 8 GPU rigs (Bitcoin, Ethereum) (Frame + Fans)

I'm going to save 85% of the population looking at this case a lot of time and heartache. IF you are looking for a quick, easy, elegant open case to either mine coins (why now?) or need a platform to do some tinkering (more likely), look else where. You will be very disappointed. Now, having said that, for the 15% of you that kept on reading, you may find this case suits your needs. The one biggest thing going for this case is its price. At around $20.00, you can't really go wrong with the case as long as you are prepared to do some work. First, the instructions are one page that are as helpful as a satellite image being used as a map to get to your neighbors backdoor, two house down the street. If you take a moment to look at the 8 parts + screws this case comes as, you can figure out how it goes together fairly quickly. I uploaded some pictures of my build. I am not mining and did not have a need for 8 GPUs. I also have a very large air cooled CPU heat sink that prohibited me from installing the lower crossbar that would have support the one graphics card I have. As is, I am very pleased with the product. The material is OK, may have scuffs or scrapes in the paint. All the holes for the mainboard were perfectly aligned. I had to manhandle some of the supports into place to screw everything down. I was pleasantly surprised with a power switch, saving me the hassle of buying one. These are my observations: Many of these cases are probably delivered bent and or scratched up, as mine was both. I would attribute this to the very minimal packing these cases come in. I was supplied with a wide variety of hardware and had lots of extra bolts and screws left over. I would recommend having an existing supply of 120mm case fan screws on hand as this product came with none. I would also recommend getting some push off nuts for raising your mainboard of the base of the chassis. Some were provided but not nearly enough for my larger ATX board. Also, the size was shorter than what I had on hand so I had to get creative. In my pictures, I have my GPU supported by only the top rail. I will probably take a Dremel to the bottom of the chassis and cut some slits to allow the GPU to sit properly. All in all, I would highly recommend this 'case' to folks who are comfortable around small power tools, aren't afraid of some chipped paint, and love a fantastic deal. At $40.00+ dollars, I would say this is a complete waste of money at $20.00, this is something worth looking at, considering the alternatives quickly start to get into the triple digits.

For the value, this is a great price and easy to put together. Only two things to report that the seller should note for the future:1)Include more of the specific screws (threads are different pitch than other two screws) that hold GPUs in on top rail. My pre-packaged bag only had 3.2)The design of this frame could be better. If you raise the tallest rail up less than an inch, you could use the midrail to be a secondary *shelf* per say. Meaning the back of the card could sit on the back rail and the riser the card is on will be on the midbar. In this case, you would be able to have short cards AND long cards in this frame. This actually the first one I've seen designed this way so you cannot mix them and it all fit standard.

After reading all the reviews I was pretty sure I was going to at least get my 20$ worth. My expectations were exceeded. No scratches, no bent members, plenty of screws (I did not get fans, may have run out if I got them but cannot be sure), free power switch, all the screw holes were exactly where they needed to be, multiple gpu support holes to accommodate different gpu sizes.Let’s be clear here. There are no bells or whistles. It is not a show piece. But mining is an investment hoping for a return, and for 20$ you are getting everything you need and then some.There are three things I may have taken stars off for if the price was higher: 1) I did have to trim the side bar a bit with some tin snips because My 580 case plate was a bit to big to use the farthest mount holes, but even this was pretty easy and you cannot see it until you look very close. 2) would be nice to have some kind of feet. I put some thick padded tape along 2 sides of the base and that worked decently well. 3) would be nice to have a way to mount PSU so that it’s fan was not blowing on the GPUs. I only point these things out so that you have a heads up. Nothing worth loosing a star for at 20$.If you need a budget mining frame that does everything and a bit more, you just found it.

Only room for 1 PSU. Not much room for hard drive.I used my own black screws for aesthetics.I bought with fans, only available. They are pure Molex, so I replaced with quite fans. But they were okay, too loud for a bedroom, okay for a garage and pushed alot of air.I am happy with it for the price compared to other items on Amazon. I paid around $75.

Missing the two side bars. I understand mistakes happen but this really sucks. I have all my cards and components, I sit down to build my new mining rig and no side bars. Stopped dead in my tracks. Real Bummer.

I bought this not for a GPU farm but for a cheap open air bench and it works great. Assembly was easy, just needed a PCIE extender for graphics cards. Some pieces were slightly bent, but not badly and easily bent back.

I put 5 single-fan and 1 double fan graphics cards on an MSI Z270 motherboard using riser cards, along with a 750W EVGA power supply. Takes a bit of work to organize all that cables and wires to fit neatly, but it certainly is an achievement afterward! The fans are not super quiet but not crazy noisy either. Price seem reasonable and make it a worthy frame to house an open mining rig.

just 20dollars！ great for the money. but not that clear for the instruction！ hope is little better
