Have you considered adding another PSU, and splitting the load. It would be hard to do cleanly on many cases. I'm a little surprised, but not shocked it's talking to you. 

ya a dual PSU would reduce loads and i have looked at a few cases that have the capability of accepting two out of the box earlier but... i don't know. something like the Corsair Obsidian 900D looks like it would flip the bill all right. it has just under double the available radiator surface area, 192 cm² vs 117 cm² , and the space for two power supplies. but i hate those 5.25" drive bays in my window... maybe remove them and add a second res/pump for a dual loop system? sigh, at this point though i think imma just try and make what i got work and learn from these complications for my next full system build. and by the looks of things with more companies trying to sell these large monster cases i might find the perfect candidate by then.

So close, just an hour more for leak test and then she'll be off to the races!

Why Mods don't ban this?
 
Such outrageous pornography certainly violate TOS. 
 
 
 
Sadly way past my budget capabilities.

I've checked our EVGA forum rules and nothing mentioned against use of tech porn. LOL!

Oh, that block is not a series block. It has 3 in series with 4. See diagram below.

Porn is porn whichever way you look at it. 
 
Then at least some PG rating. 
 
Seriously now. That bridge is same model as for Linus 7 GPU rig right?

Yes, its the same block used in that 7 gamers 1 pc rig video. Once I figure out the over heating issue i'll test it. But i did do testing on the quad sli 1070 with a dedicated 5th 1070 for physics.

oh my GPU's are not over heating. they peak at ~ 47-52C and stay there, would be lower if the A/C could keep the room cooler its ~ 30C. it is my power supply that isn't able to stay cool enough to deliver more than 1200W 24/7. once i turn on the 5th GPU i am around 1400W and in a few hours the system just cuts off, black screen power loss. i am also working on my second video that shows the new 1080ti GPU's but it may be a few weeks before i can finish editing it.

Have you tried leaving the voltages at default and running all 5 cards? You may not be able to OC as well, but they may all be able to run at the same time. 

No way your PSU can handle that all. lol  I bet your PSU is sucking all that super hot air on top of working passed its limits. 

Regardless, your GPU temps look surprisingly good but with how much rad?  Single or dual loop?  Would love to see a list of your full system and loop specs.  To me, I would haven't gone no less than 120.2 per GPU and that amounts to a ton of rad surface needed but of course I'm more into silence. 
 
I think your best bet in cases if you're gonna build these monster rigs is go with either 900D as you stated or with the premium Caselabs.

Do you at least have dual pumps in serial at the least for redundancy?

someone hasn't read the OP. (original post)

You could have said, the info to my rig is listed in the front page OR you could have made a simple signature.  A lot of times there's confusion where all the info is since sometimes the info gets scattered and go pages long and hope you didn't take my advise in a negative way.  I've been custom water cooling since 2010 and have been taught and been around those that have been since 2000.  To each their own I guess.  GL

I suppose it comes down to modding the case so the airflow isn't restricted for the power supply.
Good luck with.your system.

I just hate the look of a cube case... functionally i have nothing against it but this tower is on my desk and i need to be happy with the way it looks there. So, personal preferences keep me away from that style of case.

If the case isn't atleast 2x taller than it is wide i see the it as a cube. I also do not think i have enough room to put a wide case like that on my desk with dual monitors. I think i'll just wait for corsair concept slate to be released and get that. Have the windows gaming machine on the its mother board and 5x gpu linux machine on the reast.

OK! after taking a closer look at the bottom of the case around the intake for the PSU it was divided in half. half was coming from below and the other half from the inside of the case, as it is raised ~1/2" off the floor of the case. Now i know i am taking a higher risk here but i went ahead and flipped the PSU around so it'll pull 100% unrestricted air from the inside of the case. doing this exposes the internals to possible leaks and not something i want to keep indefinitely but i need to see if overheating PSU is the culprit. i currently have all 5 slots folding and pulling ~1390W from the wall and i'll see what happens in a few hours.
 
EDIT: well, 4 hours in and its still folding on all 5x GPU's pulling an average of ~1450W! i am actually quite glad that i seem to have found the culprit. now i just need to devise some shield to protect from possible leaks as i think that would be much easier than trying to mod the case directly.
 
EDIT2: an overnight success, now to see if it makes it through the heat of a summer day.

You'd be a prime candidate for immersion cooling.
The Novec solution from 3m boils at temps as low as 30c. Then you just run a cool water loop above it to condense it back down.
