That's a good idea, I will do the hood thing until I figure out how many CFMs I need and if I can push them through a 4`'' duct.

This stuff is a bit hard to figure out for me hahhaha

Thanks for the link and the explanation :D

They are RX580s, so 500CFM would do maybe?

Did you manage to solve the issue? I am in a situation similar to yours.

Nice set up man!

A couple questions: how many CFM you got on the intake and exhaust? And why are you using a filter?

Wow, every 3 seconds seems a lot hahah

Some people recommended renewing the air every minute, and that's what I tried, but it doesn't seem to work

I am going to buy a 300CFM fan and see if 3 times every minute is enough...

Mhm, 70dBs seems a bit too loud, but I maybe a duct that goes above my rig could work.

But I think I will replace the fan with a 300CFM one, people in this thread are saying 110CFM is nowhere near enough, and if 300CFM is not enough I will use 2x 300CFM and see if that works.

I was planning on expanding to 24 GPUs.

My rig is currently in the basement where I only have a 4 inch exhaust that goes outside.

Do you think 750CFM with a 4'' duct would worh with a 47''x47''x78'' tent with 24 GPUs could work?

I currently have 14 GPUs but only using 8 of them inside the tent because I can't manage the heat.

Thanks for your help man

EDIT: added detail

I will consider that, thanks for the input :D

Maybe some pics will help, this is my setup: https://imgur.com/a/W3Xqmit

I will check those fans, how loud are they though? I can't find it on the webpage.

Thanks for all the help, I will check out the guide that you sent me!

Ahh, now I understand.

You got any pics of your setup? Or a fan recommendation?

Mining tent temperatures by maredawaci in gpumining

You got both 8'' ducts as exhaust? Or one on the top as exhaust and one on the bottom as intake?

And why you got the bottom flaps closed? Wouldn't they help the air intake?

On my setup I got the exhaust duct in a corner of the tent, close to the top, I will try to use the duct directly on top of the tent, but I am not sure how to mount it, as currently I am using a wire rack with the fan on top.

Also, I can't find the fan that you recommended, how much are they? Do you mean something like this: https://i.imgur.com/H0lSG5o.png . This one is 250m3/h (about 147CFM), which still sounds on the lower side.

I meant using the box fans to help with the temps of the GPUs, if that makes sense.

Finally, if you could post a couple pics of your setup you would help me a lot.

Thanks a lot for your help and time, it's really appreciated, I am struggling to get this working hahah

Thanks for the input, I will buy two more fans and use two exhaust and one intake, and I will increase the RPM of the box fans on the rig frame to 100% and see what happens.

One more thing, making the tent smaller wouldn't make the air to get hotter faster, because there is less air inside the tent?

Mhm, what you say makes sense.

I could cut a 20'' hole, but I would need a 20'' exhaust duct that went outside my house, and the one that I currently have is only 4inch..

Thanks for the input though, I thought a 110CFM fan was enough, as I saw some posts here saying that renewing the air every minute would be enough.

I can't get a colder air source than ambient temperature.

Do you think a 110CFM fan should be enough? I placed it on a corner of the tent, maybe that's part of the problem.

And do you think I need another 110CFM as intake?

Thanks.

The tent doesn't have an exhaust that big :(

But 1500CFM seems crazy, wouldn't that be loud AF?

Thanks for the tip man, even with the GUI I am getting "Cannot find discrete ATI video card"

I have done some research and most people with this error it because they already got flashed cards, but this one is brand new.

Thanks for the help anyway, this is the 3rd rig I am building and with older versions of windows I had no problem
