hi guys. I have been lurking and reading about all types of rigs people use for mining and realized that there is no real solution for immersion cooling. there had been some experiments here and there but it was mainly done by hobbyists. I run a tech company specializing in web/app/hardware/software electronics development and all of my employees have a lot of hand-on experience in many tech fields. I thought I'd allocate some budget and some brain power and see what happens. This is non commercial product at the moment. We are just trying to see what's what. If the results are good and we come up with some worthy inventions, it may turn into commercial product at a later point.

For now, we'll buy some hardware, we will overclock the GPUs to see the limits and get the baseline readings. Next we will design a specific enclosure around this setup and run some simulations in SolidWorks to see how we can remove any hotspots, even out the oil flow, and calculate the minimum amount of oil we can use to achieve the desired results. Finally, we will build a sample box and submerge our rig and see how much more we can overclock it with oil cooling. We will track the changes in power consumption as well. I'll post the updates as we go.

Here is the question. We were going to use 6 x 1070 cards to experiment with but I am noticing that many miners run whatever cards they can get their hands on based on price and availability. So now I want to run 3 x 1070 cards and pick 3 other popular cards on the market (3 x 1080 or 3 x anything). What should we test with?
