Riser enable more cards on a motherboard, as you suggest. But it also gives you much better cooling.

what kind of temp you got with this layout? Will they get too hot?

At -5'C outside temp:

 GPU 0:  72.0C 3281RPM
 GPU 1:  73.0C 2554RPM
 GPU 2:  72.5C 2027RPM
 GPU 3:  73.5C 1693RPM
 BFL 0:  32.6C

No fans in the side door, but I will have those installed by the summer (or more likely, have this running at a datacenter).

Four GPUs including the APU on a mATX motherboard. Placed in my shed. Running as cheap as I can get with salvaged PSUs, monitor and no case.

That cooler is the stock cooler that came with my Phenom II or FX-8150, it has the same mounting as the stock AMD APU cooler, but is better due to the heatpipes and larger surface area.

Vertical mounting and stock/reference coolers are a great combination. Thats why I love my RV03 case.

PCBs just arrived, a couple days early instead of a solid week late. That's pretty great. Looks like we'll be shipping early this time instead of the other thing.

Sent an order 5 days ago, but haven't heard back. Invoices and order confirmations are sent when the product are ready for shipment?

Btw: Got two of mstrongbow's 3d printed cases in the mail the other they, and they have a really good fit to the PSU. Looking forward to mount some boards in them

I ran some of my GPU rigs in an uninsulated shed through the winter and ended with bad corrosion on the motherboard. All the GPUs and PSUs was fine, I guess because they are hot.

Please let us know as soon as you get new boards in stock, or if you will open a pre-order list. I need two boards w/cables.

@IITravel01 yeah, I did something similar in March. Two S1's, also in a Corsair case - although a C70 case. Fan holes in the S1 matches fan guard on top of the case.

Just checked Brønnøysundregistrene* and there is no company in Norway named "Turing Stations AS".

Just got my two after a lot of trouble. UPS gave me statuses like "We've missed the scheduled transfer time. This may cause a delay." and "A mechanical failure has delayed delivery. We're adjusting plans to deliver your package as quickly as possible.".

Anyway. This is my 7th and 8th Bitmain miner and the order process is great every time. Shipment, packaging, pricing is good. And now with the S3, the hardware quality is also top notch! Plug, config, mine in a few minutes! Thanks Bitmaintech

https://www.bitmaintech.com/files/download/BM1382_Datasheet_v3.0.pdf just noticed there are no GND pins or pads. Maybe some are labeled wrong, or am I missing something?

Found your product today. Almost what I am looking for (I would like a case, that is mostly closed). I hope to see photos of the 4x ant case, I might consider it.

I had a Corsair C70 case left over from my 4 GPU mining rig. Found it to be a perfect home for my to Antminer S1's. The only real modification (ie. needed drilling) is the removal of the top drive bays. I love this case. Easy removal of side panels, good space, carrying handles and often discounted in white as the color is not that popular.

Panel on, lights off:

Panel off, with flash:

Original vents for radiator:

The unit I ordered yesterday and paid immediately still shows as unpaid. I sent a mail to the webmaster@bitmaintech.com address. I placed an order for one unit a few weeks ago and it went through with shipping next day, and delivery the day after that. Was hoping for the same fast experience now... but I guess the payment provider issues are holding them up.
