Looks good. You will also need risers, a power switch for the motherboard, monitor dummy plug and a Watt usage meter.

molex are better, i heard bad story about sata and fried up system because the sata were not good enough with the wattage deliver, for me it's still good to use normal risers and not usb, less cables around and no issue at all |

I use 6-pin PCI-E risers. Three thicker wires that are designed to spread a higher 12V load compared to 2 for molex and sata connectors. The good ones also come with a voltage regulator to prevent spikes. Here is a good overview of the different riser types: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=MxQM8MRGUWsYou can use molex or sata adapters if you run out of VGA ports on the PSU. The important thing no matter which risers you choose is to never use more than 2 connectors per cable to power VGA's. With three the cable will start to get warm and if you use four, you WILL fry your PSU, the cable or both. |

Yes, those are like the 6-pin risers I use. They have a voltage regulator, use four capacitors instead of three and a good quality USB 3.0 cable. |

With the BIOS mod not really. The main difference is future proofing the dag size when mining ETH and better resale value. |
