You need a switched PDU. Try searching ebay, I recommend APC. Depending on how much power you need, you might want to consider a 208v model with a 20 or 30 amp 240v circuit. You can find a 30amp zero U model on ebay for < $200.
It's running in an un-airconditioned garage that hovers around 95f, hottest card gets to 78c
95 is pretty damned hot. I am lucky that I live in a house with a deep stone-wall basement. Perfect for chilling wine (if I could afford some) or housing noisy computer equipment. Even in summer it's maybe 70 degrees down there.
But seriously man - you want to put that nice rig into that hot ass garage? I would be digging a hole or finding somewhere else I could hide that. Even if it was at work, or at a friends house (who you would have to pay for power I am sure). :-)
Yea it is hot but it's been running pretty well so far, I don't think 78c on the hottest card is a deal breaker. I could put it in my office but I rather not pay to cool this monster with the a/c too. I'm going to install a large extractor in the garage that should be able to keep the temp at ambient, (88-72).

Right now they're setup to push, been working pretty well like that, there's a little over an inch between them.

What do you guys think? This is my first try for a rack mount gpu miner. Next version is going to be configured a little different, and it will have aluminum paneling on the sides to direct the airflow.
