Each cube takes 2 6pin connectors so suppose I built up a decent amount of these what would be the easiest way to run/power all of them? Also, I would need a usb hub to handle them. I guess at some point it wouldn't be cost effective before moving on to a more cost effective solution.

well they will use about 280 watts of power if you plan on overclocking, so you will probably want a 1200 watt PSU to power 3 to 4, depending on the PSU.  (check the amperage before buying).  Of course it may be easier to get cheaper 400 watt PSU's and power each one separately, it all depends on what your setup looks like and how much room you have.

Also you will not need a USB hub as these do not run through USB but through ethernet cables.  So you will need a switch or a router capable of handling as many ethernet cables as cubes that you have.
