Bitcoin mining is now a specialized and very risky industry, just like gold mining. Amateur miners are unlikely to make much money, and may even lose money. Bitcoin is much more than just mining, though!

So the GA-H61M-S2V-B3 with powered risers will do fine? x16-x16 unpowered, x1-x16 all powered?

The cheapest MB with 3 or 4 PCIe you can find will do the work.
Just use powered risers.

Bought a Gigabyte (970-DS3) on the second hand market for 50$. It's mining fine for 3 months.
