The motherboard: http://www.asus.com/Motherboards/M5A78LM_LX_V2/

It has one PCI-E X16 and 2x PCI-E X1, would risers work properly with it? Do I need risers with molex or only after 3+ cards?

Probably

I would get powered risers for all cards

It's a budget board, I guarantee nothing

Yeah I know, really budget-ish. What about a M5A97? Has support for 2x PCI-E x16 cards (one at x4) and I'd power one with a 1x riser?
