It's hard to say for sure, but I don't doubt it will make enough money to keep me happy. It all depends on the price of the currencies at the time.
Original post has been updated!!
There would be absolutely no point me doing this if it didn't.
great pics mate
2 qustions if you dont mind me asking
1. what hash rates are the PowerColors giving you?
2. Where did you get the red tubing from?
Sure. Currently about 730kH/s out of the box. When I can be bothered to spend a day tweaking, maybe they can do more.
Aluminium ware from a company called Aluminium Warehouse who cut it all to size. Very hassle-free process. Google them
Aye, I'll definitely be going back for some more.Hah, so I see you went to my fav metal store after all
Looks great mate.
Roughly, 3/4 months if I were paying everything I make onto my investment each month. I probably won't be doing that though, so I've worked on the basis it will take about 10 months.
I'm not going to lie to you mate, I have no idea.
I don't have cross fire enabled and I don't think I even have an option to turn it on as they aren't in the 16x port. The PowerColour ones can be undervolted straight out of the box whereas my MSI ones need a different BIOS.

Not more cost!
I'm probably looking at more like 18,000kH/s given the 20 x 280X generate 15,000kH/s alone. The 4 x 290 will do 880 each so 3,520kH/s total.
Here's hoping it all pays off eh!
Well, slight update.
One of my 1300W PSU's trips out when I fire up the 4th 280X. The other 4 are working perfectly fine each with 5 identical cards running in identical machines.
Electrician has been today to fit a new garage unit with 32A on each fuse. 3 rigs on each now.

Today I decided that rather than having the fans just blowing around the room like there's no tomorrow, I would position them behind a rig to see the difference in temperatures.
They are laid out like this, where the red box is the mine. The second photo is the temperatures before putting the fan behind them and the third are the new temperatures. I am very happy with the results here and have no hesitations leaving the cards at around 70 degrees now.

Still need to get a thermometer... I will do it soon!
Won't be having a new PSU until next week it seems as OcUK won't/can't ship a replacement to me until the SuperFlower is received which, given as it's a Friday won't be until early next week.

Cooling so far has been very good, no cards are going over 75 now. The ambient temperature is obviously still a problem, but there isn't much I can do with that yet. I am considering knocking a couple of air bricks out to fit extractor fans but have no idea how possible this actually is.
