Regardless, going with 2 5970's per computer is probably the more cost effective option.

Agreed...

Just what kind of PSU (would one handle it) would you need for quad 5970s?

As far as I know you can't set 4 5970s in one system since each of them already has 2 GPUs onboard.

It is certainly possible, some people around here have done it.  I think only the linux drivers support 8 GPUs.  Regardless, going with 2 5970's per computer is probably the more cost effective option.

In the time you'll set up the new hardware difficulty will rise by another 40% average. Buying _now_ hardware to mine isn't the best idea ever.

That system with watercooling will easily be over 3000 Euro.

I already have a system running just upgrading cards and motherboard.

I plan to run 4 HD5970's on a water cooling, what is the best motherboard for this for the price?
