There you go. That mother board with risers should hold 6 + 1 more in the pcie 1x slot "the little tiny one" So 7 in total.

Edit: On amazon there are a few open box listing for that motherboard for $100.

I don't buy intel myself. I could look but to be honest with you this processor I linked you is more than enough for mining. The nice feature about this processor is it only takes like 45 or 50 watts where that intel one you had posted takes over 100. Believe me your power bill is going to go up enough as it is, no point in burning more electricity than you already have to.

Edit: It is also about 60 or 70 dollars cheaper, take that and put it towards your 4th or 5th video card.

Okay, just swap out your mother board and processor with these here and you can fit 4 video cards right on the board without using risers. This motherboard should support 5 video cards in total but for the 5th one to work you will have to buy a pcie 1x to 16x riser. I will link you to one of those as well. If you are building it into a milk crate then you might as well buy risers for the other cards as well. This keeps them cooler.

http://www.amazon.com/AMD-Sempron-145-Processor-SDX145HBGMBOX/dp/tech-data/B0040BPHJO/ref=de_a_smtd

You only need 1 of this kind if you plan to add a 5th video card.

Get 4 of these for the other 4 video cards if you want to get better air circulation.

Keep in mind if you are not going to use risers the cards will be almost touching one another and they are going to be producing a TON of heat. Buy the risers and save your self the trouble.

Hope this helps a bit.

Are you building this into a computer case or leaving it open air?
26  Other / CPU/GPU Bitcoin mining hardware / Re: Is this mining rig okay? on: August 08, 2013, 07:36:37 PM
1 video card per pcie slot.
I think what you mean is one sli bridge will link two cards together which is true but both cards still need to be installed into their own pcie slot on the mother board. Just so you know, you don't need to crossfire them or link the cards together for them to mine coins.

Is there a list that shows who all is waiting to be paid and how much? I noticed the other list that was immediately posted after the wallet drain which I find funny because the only person who should give a shit about it is the pool host. The "waiting to be paid" list is a lot more interesting to me...

Hell im only out 2-3 coins and cant get a straight answer. I feel terrible for those who lost more.

Your message directed me here and I have already read this entire post. I do not understand what is going on as I am new to all this. All I do know is I have almost 3 ltc on my account and would like to know how to access it. Thanks.

Hello there!
First post for me but will be making more here in the future I am sure. Semi new to all this coin business and just figured I would stop by and maybe learn something. See you all on the forums.
