Guru3D Rig of the Month - September 2019
Inno3D offer a ready-to-use cryptomining system with nine P104-100s
Inno3D started making complete mincing cryptocurrency setups. The company is offered full systems with nine mining cards in it based on faster the P104-100 GPU, aka the GeForce GTX 1070.
The kit holds a motherboard with nine P104-100s at PCIe 1.0 x4 and a. Intel Celeron 3865U tied towards 4GB DDR4-2133. This new machine can manage to 330 MH/sec (ETH) and supersedes its predecessor with an 40% of mining performance. Spread over 9 PCBs the system rules with an incredible 17,280 CUDA cores. In addition, it has been equipped with a total of 10 fans engaging jet-like propulsion to keep the controller chips cooler than ever. The company refuses to relay their pricing for this setup.
“Building a mining farm from scratch becomes super-easy with the need of placing additional cooling fans. Just install the OS and you can go!” said Stanley Wong, VP Sales Worldwide at INNO3D®. “And while this industry is rapidly evolving, we believe that this system has everything in house to meet the challenges and the needs of today’s demanding miner.”

They are not using 1070 cards, they are using striped down versions for mining which are cheaper. AMD 580 isn't even easy to find, and if you do, they are not cheap, especially if you plan to purchase hundreds of thousands of them. I am not even sure that they are available in those quantities at the source.
Wouldn't it have been cheaper to just use 580s instead? From what I heard, they perform roughly the same for mining. Meanwhile, since this is a very customized setup anyway, they could've modified the BIOSes of the 580s to be pre-overclocked; you can't do that with Pascal products to my knowledge.

Fair point.
I'm sure it doesn't stay at that speed all the time. Besides, have you ever been in a server room? Sometimes you need earplugs because the fans are spinning so fast.

That's an aweful quiet DC
<---- I miss that one

Every server room I have been in, which is about 10, were all pretty quiet. Just a hum. And one even had 110 server racks in it with quad amd opteron per 1CU. Watching my exs mom do a DVD conversion to my PSP on that made me so damn jealous. It had 4x 2ghz Dual cores, and I only had an overclcocked 939 X2 3800+ @ 3.1ghz

A combined hash rate of 330 MH/s means that each GPU can do 36.7 MH/s, which is better than the 29 MH/s that a (modded) RX 580 can do. I'm guessing they're already fully optimized for mining.
A look at the manufacturer's site for the product shows an interesting assembly (http://www.inno3d.com/products_detail.php?refid=351). Looks like the system itself is on a separate controller card, which plugs into a PCIe slot. Seems like a really customized rig, as opposed to most others which are just modified PCs.
Wouldn't it have been cheaper to just use 580s instead? From what I heard, they perform roughly the same for mining. Meanwhile, since this is a very customized setup anyway, they could've modified the BIOSes of the 580s to be pre-overclocked; you can't do that with Pascal products to my knowledge.
