Rackable PC case

[Rasup]

Hello,

Could someone recommend rackable PC case?  In best case 1u or 2u
 

Maybe someone has use some particular? Also would need to install 2x GPU.

 

Thanks

So I've been searching for a while for rack case that would support more than a GPU, I think I can share with you some key aspects.

 

After drooling over it and server equipment i decided I wanted to rack mount everything and possibly configure an unraid machine with multiple gpu host inside.

There are few cases which can be used to host a full atx system or Ea Atx system with up to 4 gpus. 

Things to consider though are:
1. budget, this cases cost way more than your typical case due to the fact that they are super sturdy and built with metal.

2.  location, Here in italy there are few cases available and shipping from other countries is very expensive. (they weigh a ton) 

3. Where to mount it. Rack closets can get very expensive! Even more than the case itself. That said they are also big and weigh a shit ton.

4. Noise, while you can get a case with space for 120mm fans and make them very quiet, cooling performance will suffer a lot! Also 2 gpus yikes! 

That said you will need at least a 3U if mounting full bracket pcie gpus. assuming you have access with chenbro cases i'd go with them. Something like this should do the trick just fine.

@BlackMamba Thanks for input.

all 4 points are ok with me. This time surprisingly I have budget, can ship it if needed, I have rack space and noise is not a problem

Thanks for recommending. Looks nice. will try to find raiser cards, as I really need to save on space and use 2U size max
