I am running 7950's and 280x's.

Is £140 a good price for new 3GB Sapphire 7950?

Are powered risers cheap?

btw which cards do you use

Not right now no. But they should be like 15-20 plus shipping. But they are all coming from China so expect 2-3 weeks shipping.

what are the best cards? 280x is £240 each but 7850's are on sale for £95 each. Should I just buy 4 7850's?

I have this Mobo, and it's running right now with 2 7990. I'm planning to add another card in it, but I need to build a special case for all cards to fit in. Basically, the main problem with this card is that it has a lot of PCIe interfaces, but then you have to fit all the cards so that they don't overheat, so you'll need risers and to build a special case for it, unless you live in a very cold country and you don't mind having the machine sitting somewhere in the cold. You can actually fit 5 graphics cards on this Mobo (with riser adapters from 1x to 16x for 2 cards, it's enough to mine), the main problem you'll face is heat dissipation from the cards.

Hi, sorry if this is a stupid question but does someone know how many radeon 7850's would fit on an Asrock Extreme4 970 Motherboard?

If 7850 is not a good option then which gpu should i get? thanks
