I notice in the pictures the R-Boxes are standing upright with the fan facing up.

For better airflow they should be on their sides. Air blowing horizontally.

For the original sales photo ops they look cool upright but should be sideways in operation.
interesting... has this been tested?  any particular side "better"?
....
I side turned them and in under 5 minutes they all dropped 2-3 c  
....
interesting... that project to mount them vertically on a beam seems like a way to go then...

Yes maybe vertical is better,but  give me a few minutes I will take a shot of current mounting as  temps are now close to 40c with side mount.


Room temp in attached garage is 83.5 f

six sideways with cablez's pcie adapters:



when they were top fan mounted these ran 47 to 50 c

look at temps now 37 c to 41 c    and the  hash rate jumped to 195gh  vs 192gh
