Sentdex: Stop Stacking $80K RTX Pro 6000 Cards — Use MCIO Risers Instead
Sentdex · x · 2026-10-24
Sentdex explains why stacking workstation GPUs is a trap: temp readings are probes built on airflow assumptions, many components can't be probed at all, and stacking drastically alters how fans move air across the card. RTX Pro 6000 workstation cards simply aren't built for this thermal profile, and he's watched people reverse course quickly. His advice: don't cook $80,000 of GPUs plus a $15,000 computer — use MCIO risers and spread the cards out.
