You don't need 8x risers, just use 1x.

750W is enough for 4?. You are missing relevant information, which graphics cards? Probably not enough, unless you use cheap crappy GPUs.

Yes, just fine.

Look up the TDP of those GPU on google, then add them together. Add 125W for the motherboard/cpu and you have a PSU estimate.

That many different GPUs in one computer is going to suck, bad! Very hard to configure properly.

If you overclock, add about 25%
And load your PSU only 80% max

1)What do you want to mine?
2)What hardware does that thing have? Nvidia? Then it's wasted time
3)Do you know what are you doing? This is important  :D

Obviously not. But then again, do you?   :D

Modern cards can suck 200w or more. 750w is not enough. Also pay attention to the risers you buy, there have been some cases of melted risers

On the internet, nobody knows you are a clueless dog.

Risers on e-bay. I already told you how to find out how big of a power supply you need. Different cards need different settings (PITA, you won't be able to figure it out from what I've seen here,) and radically different cards might not even mine together.
