Gigabyte XKT-1155 Z68AP-D3

I see it has 2X full Pcie X16 where I could put in 2cards straight in, and It also has 3X Pcie X1  Ports, So I could just use x1 to x16 Raisers Like these in picture and install 3 more videocards on the same board?



So would it be possible to actually run 5videocards at same time with this motherboard?

There are several different types of Bitcoin clients. The most secure are full nodes like Bitcoin Core, which will follow the rules of the network no matter what miners do. Even if every miner decided to create 1000 bitcoins per block, full nodes would stick to the rules and reject those blocks.

I would be running a mix of 5850 and 5870 cards,
and any problems you may think of I might have?

With it being a much older board it might have problems running all those cards but it is worth a shot you never know what will happen with mining.
