If you are just using it for mining then there's no point in throwing a Bulldozer in that board. Regardless it should work and I've got 5 cards running in a pair of these boards. Been working error free for about 2 months.

Even if you use Bitcoin through Tor, the way transactions are handled by the network makes anonymity difficult to achieve. Do not expect your transactions to be anonymous unless you really know what you're doing.

I would recommend the GIGABYTE GA-990FXA-UD3 for your purposes, it has the same layout for pci-e except one of the 16x slots is replaced with a 1x slot, obviously shouldn't be a problem if you are running 6 cards since you are definitely using some extenders already. It is $30 cheaper than the UD5 and I like the pci-e layout better. It also has support for the FX processors.

Are you actually personally currently running 6 cards on a GIGABYTE GA-990FXA-UD3 ??

How are you doing that? I'm using an x2 250 and it maxes 100% cpu with only 3 cards. With 4 cards the rates go down considerably from what they should be. That cpu can barely support 3 cards, and definitely not 4. I'm upgrading to an FX-8120.

Why is your CPU being used at all ?
using cgminer there is very little, to no cpu usage.....

I found the issue, was a bug in my miner. Moved to an older version, problem went away. Doh.
All of the latest miners use 100% cpu, seems like some sort of bug in the engine or mining code. If I swap to slightly older versions the usage drops to < 2%. Any idea what might be going on there? I'm running the latest drivers as of today.
For aggression/intensity, I"m using 14 under BFGMiner, and 12 aggression on phoenix.

I think the newer drivers introduced the 100% cpu bug, but only at high aggression/intensity. For me (driver 12. , I:9 is good, but I:10 or higher isn't.

set affinity for all miner processes to 1 cpu core. then save other core(s) to run the OS and feed the gpus

intensity depends on if the GPU is being used.... I have a few cards in my @home rig and the Desktop card uses I:6 and the others use I:9...
