Looking to buy a combo that can fit 6 graphics cards, with or without PCI-E riser cables, either intel or AMD, and preferably either gigabyte or MSI but might take others. Preferably very low end, power efficient CPU's. Only need 2GB RAM at the minimum. Heatsink + fan is mandatory. List of motherboards that accept 6 cards from what I can tell.

AMD Gigabyte boards.
GA-990FXA-UD7, GA-990FXA-UD5, GA-990FXA-UD3, GA-890FXA-UD7, GA-890FXA-UD5

AMD MSI boards.
990FXA-GD80V2, 990FXA-GD80, 990FXA-GD65V2, 990FXA-GD65, 990XA-GD55, 890FXA-GD70, 890FXA-GD65

Intel Gigabyte boards.
G1.Sniper 3, GA-Z77X-UD5H, GA-Z77X-UP5, GA-Z77X-UD4H, GA-Z77X-UP4, GA-Z77X-UD3H, GA-Z77X-D3H

Intel MSI boards.
Z77 MPOWER, Z77A-GD80, Z77A-GD65, Z77A-GD55, Z77A-G45

I personally have 2 MSI Z77A-g45 boards that are verified to run 6 cards (Has 7 PCI-E slots. One 1x slot shuts off though when the adjacent one is populated.)

Looking for $100 shipped to 54501, USA. Payment type negotiable.

Out of my price range, sorry. Keep the offers coming though. MrB was selling combos for $100 a while back, so I'm hoping to get a similar price. Smiley

Yeah I have one of those. They're expensive though about about $20 per PCI-E slot added.

Yeah if it were me to go back and rethink my farm I'd just go with higher hash cards on less per rig though. Nothing sucks quite like a ton of noisy 5770's compared to a couple of 5870's.

Noise isn't an issue for me. I run reference 5870 and 5970 fans at 100%. It's all in the basement sucking electricity from a dryer socket where I can -barely- hear it and I'm directly above the rigs.

Yes. I PM'd him too, but no response. Maybe he didn't like pictures I showed <.<

I have received the combo from pbj. It was packed extremely well (Packing peanuts galore!), and albeit a little dusty, it was in perfect condition. All accessories were included as well. Recommended seller.
