Happy to join the club! mobo:Gigabyte GA-970A-DS3P GPU: 3xMSI R9-390 8Gb 1x XFX R9-380 4GB Currently hashing away at 100, hoping to get that up to 110+
Seeing some of these setups really wants me to rework my farm layout, but i'm scared that some of my rigs won't like being moved about or being reinstalled into new frames. Everything is working now, so maybe best I don't touch anything LOL

I'm right there with ya buddy lol...I want to make the move to wire racks from my Home Depot rack that uses particle board for each shelf to allow for better cooling, but afraid to take everything down and have to bring it t back up lol
The nano is rated at 175 watts, but you're only using 450 watts per rig? Did I read that right? Makes for an interesting rig only because of possible resale vale.
I have nothing but Nanos (>100) and they are all Sapphire, except for a hand full of PowerColors. The Sapphires are great and best price; I don't like the PowerColors (run hotter, at lower core clock). I run a 6 GPU rig on just under 1200w at 26 MH/s per GPU.
I don't understand why people mine with nano's. They're extremely expensive and hash lower than a 390. Apart from power usage and maybe cooling, that's the only benefit I can see. 390 is almost half the price and faster.

You read that right yes. 6 cards only 450watt ATW.

If you read my posts, you'll see why.
I own 390's as well.
did tests with almost every card there is. Nano came out best. (Hash/power)
And now with my modded bios, it's even better.
+ Cards don't even go above 50 degrees. life span will go up.
Also, cards are small, thus interesting for future buyers.
Oh, check my rigs, try to put 6 390's in a config like that. That small
So many advantages.
I'm not telling 390's are bad cards.
But they tend to use almost 150 watt more for the same hash.
Do that x 100 cards and you'll see why i bought those nano's.

hash/power, but did you forget about how much one nano costs compared to a 390?
@Rnrsalas clean looking setup! Although maintenance looks like it would be slightly troublesome if you have to access one of your lower positioned rigs on your rack
Yeah, I thought that too at the beginning, but then I realized once it is set up and working fine, why should I worry about that? So far, it has been over 2 months since the rig is working without any trouble, hope it stays that way! =P thanks for your concern!!

Referal to my setup (pictures are not all under image tags so you'll have to click to see em all)

Got 130Gpu's running perfectly fine now! Great times!
You'll have lots of fun setting everything up!
Although, to be honest, i received them 3 months ago. So i was there when eth was way up there
Anyhow, i have a good feeling that it's not a bad investment!
Good luck!
edit: nevermind...googled it.

The others are different cards. 280x's 290x's, 390x's,
I posted a picture of the other part..

There are some Fury X's in there as well.
And no, i'm not a millionaire... It's a very very small house over here
so a little more than a 390
4x Sapphire HD 7950
8x Sapphire R9 380
4x Asus strix R9 380

thanks for your concern!!

and after metal prototype.
I think next week will be all over.
