Most higher end "enthusiast" boards that support that many GPUs will have onboard power switches.  A better question is, "What board will support 4-6 GPUs properly spaced?"  There are a few options, most of which have the onboard switches.

Um, just take a switch off a tower, or connect two wires to the pins. Touch them to turn it on, touch them again to turn it off.

Use a screwdriver... a coin... a paperclip... a jumper...

Are you willing to pay all that extra money for a simple switch to be on the mobo?

If you set it up to "turn on after power failure"... you just use your PSU switch, or power-bar switch to turn it on... (after shutting down properly). Just turn it off then back on... poof.. instant power button!
