8x7990 Power Requirements
#5
The CPUs are being cooled by Corsair Hydros (the 2x140mm rad). For the GPUs, initially the cooling will just be the case fans until I figure out how much additional cooling I actually need. Little bit of trial and error. The room the boxes are going to be in is kept at about 68 degrees, so I don't forsee their being much of an issue as long as the hot air from the GPUs is vented out of the case well. That is actually why I picked the Lan Box, as it appears to have a mesh top for venting. If not, I'll be digging out the dremel. :-)

I'm planning on the cooling not really being completely adequate under full load, and I'll probably end up having to build an LC loop combined with a chiller instead of a rad to handle the load from the GPUs.

BTW, Thats an awesome cool-rig.
