First rig, I'd like to go simple and start with throwing 2-3 RX 570 on a motherboard without building/buying a dedicated frame.
A board that would look like this.

Possibly with less slots (let's say 4). Ideally, I'm looking for something with a brand name or some forum rep' and a European warranty  Grin

I was going to suggest you the Colorful motherboard as is one of the very few branded  motherboards which can run cards without risers at all but you have already done by yourself so don't wait anymore and just hit the add to cart button Smiley , worth the money if you want a risers free motherboard.

This mb seems really easy to use. But won't the cards get too close to each other and affecting airflow?

Yes this will be a bit of a downfall but if you keep fans 90% or at max speed then airflow would not be a problem anymore. I have an old Gigabyte motherboard where I have put 3 x 1060 directly in PCIEX16, X8 and X4 slots which are near each other and I have solved the problem with airflow by setting the fan speed higher and temp limit 70 degree celsius in afterburner. I think same settings can be applied to any cards for such motherboards.

It seems they have a more compact version with an SOC Celeron: http://www.colorfly.eu/iGame/C.J1900A-BTC%20PLUS%20V20.html

Cereberus, would you advise a European reseller?




EDIT: found it on eBay (so, with Paypal protection) but it's still sent from HK.
