rackmount design is a lot more complicated than "good airflow"
- what board are you fitting ?
- what cpu ?
- active or passive cooling ?
- with or without rails ?

Sorry if I was a little vague, we are using Q6600's with active cooling. Rails are a plus but we are looking to undercut retail by a bit so they can be removed to reduce cost.

Remove the rails to reduce costs? What the hell are you going to do when you have a stack of 5/10/20 of these and the bottom one fails? Madness IMO for the £5/10 you will save. Good luck!

If you get desperate: X-CASE- RM 100 - 1u Rackmount Includes Rails, 4 i/o Shields - Racksurf , Rackmount cases, Rackmount systems, 1u,2,3u,4u,5u, rackmount systems, rackqueen, custom server, bespoke server

I doubt you'll find anything cheaper then this and at least you get rails!

We already have generic rack kits ready to attach to them, I don't know if this is how you forum users treat people looking to buy products but unless you have something to sell then I am not interested in what you have to say.

Thanks, I'll pass that along and keep looking!

Hi,

How many are you after? Where are you based?
