I want to build a multi GPU (3 to 4 GPU) rackmount server to support cracking NTLM (-m 1000) hashes for my team of pentesters. My budget is 20k max. Any suggestions on hardware selection? I've been looking at Gigabyte servers and I think I need a 4U profile to mount the cards vertically.
Going down this rabbit hole and googling this is starting to create more questions than answers. For example, I'm reading about FE cards with radial fans and heat, and it looks like the RTX 3080 Ti cards I had in my shopping cart will have one of two fans blowing hot air back into the case.
Heat dissipation and power supply are a big concern so I can avoid burning down the data center or shortening the life of the system due to heat.
Thanks in advance.
