Mining Rig
One machine built to run mining hardware.
A mining rig is a purpose-built computer: a board, a processor, a power supply and several cards, usually on an open frame so the heat has somewhere to go.
The parts that fail are rarely the cards. Power delivery, risers and dust are what take rigs offline, which is why the power and cooling guides spend more time on cables than on silicon.
