Re: [GUIDE] Strato's Antminer S5 Vertical Mounting Setup Guide

Stand the Miner Vertical. Set it up like I drafted it out in my Op Post. See the heat difference. See the OC capability difference.

Yesterday I tried just simply standing my S5's vertical. The temps dropped. Strange, but Strato's right. With mine, I pointed the airflow down to the floor, since cool air is coming in from a window above the miners.

With the miners laying horizontal, and cool outside air pouring at the intake fans and on top, they run hotter than when it's vertical.

Thanks for that tip Strato.

Glad it worked for you. But am I reading your post correctly that you are exhausting the hot air down? You should exhaust up. But regardless, yes standing the miners up vertical results in better cooling efficiency.

Yes, I am venting down. Only because of the height of my window bringing in cool air, which dumps neatly above the miners, so I wanted to pull that cool air in as it naturally flows from above the miners.

I knew venting up, would be more logical. But with the cool air coming from above the miners, I thought I'd give it a try. It lowered my temps. Thanks again!
