agree blandy. and that's why we started putting a max of three cards per chassis, with one pci slot in between each card. that way the cards are not directly side-by-side and have adequate airflow. four cards is doable if you can put some kind of spacer in between them, but still not ideal.
Before putting Arctic Accelero Coolers on:

After, (The cardboard underneath stops the heat being blown down and cooking mobo / CPU / PSU etc and it was a problem!):

Examples of dust on existing reference cards, (they were second-hand obviously):

I'm really surprised that you needed to put Accelero coolers on 5870s, especially when you had that much spacing in between them. I like your setup there though, that's pretty slick!
I could not overclock the cards at all with reference coolers on, cracking hard-ass algos like WPA/WPA2 or mscache2, they would still hit 90oC on stock clocks easy. With Accelero's on, they dont go over 66oC when clocked @ 900MHz core and 1300MHz mem. I can clock higher but keep becomes unstable after 950MHz.

That said, the bloody dust build-up on the reference coolers caused most of the over-heating issues lol Smile but cleaning the reference coolers is not easy, have 2 take them totally apart!
Some time passed and I got a PC! Big Grin
But the speed test shows less than expected:

I saw HD7970 test on another post - the speed was about 8000 M/s. Why I got 5300 on the same HD7970? Maybe I need something to adjust? Thank you.

that's what you need to adjust. if you're using lite, use "-m 0 -b --benchmark-mode 1" to test your speed. if you're using plus, use "-n 800 -u 1024" with a large keyspace.
Thank you. Tryed "-n 800 -u 1024" with another parameters (as in theme '8 x AMD HD7970 @ 1050MHz'):
-n 800 --gpu-loops 1024 -1 ?l?d?s?u --outfile-watch 0 --restore-timer 0 --runtime 10 --pw-min 8 -m 0 ffffffffffffffffffffffffffffffff ?1?1?1?1?1?1?1?1?1

Speed.GPU.#4...: 9733.5M/s
Good result!
But now I see that I need to install additional 4 fans, because cards temperature reaches 90 degrees. I'll work on that.
I need to make something like this:

https://home.btconnect.com/md5decrypter/g...280009.JPG

I should use "Adapter Extender Cable": https://cablesaurus.com
If I will use this "x1 -> x16" - how it affect the speed? Also, If I will use two of them to get cable with length*2, how it affect the speed?
that's blandyuk's rig.

the speed will not be affected using a 1x slot.

i've daisy-chained extenders and not noticed a difference in speed.
x1 will not affect speed for hashcat.

;D I'm too slow
