I've got a 7990 mining away on a old MB (yes I know GPU mining is almost done, but I may switch to litecoin...)
I want to build a new super system that will mine for a few months then switch to playing BF4.
I would like to have at least 3 pcie slots (I've got a few 6870s in another machine), so I would be giving GPU mining one last blast from one machine.
How many cores do I need to run 3 video cards, plus a few asic erupters?
So what I need to know is what Motherboard/CPU combo do you recommend (this would be a bang for the buck system), power supply, even case...and having a ton of usb slots would be cool for those asics.
I've been told go with Intel only and I will probably buy from newegg, unless you recommend otherwise.
Thanks

Get a Gigabyte GA-Z87X-D3H. It can run 6 Gpus and has six rear USB 3 ports and 2 USB 2. If you want to oc, get the i5-4570k. If you want to spend as little as possible and don't require Oc abilities, get an i5-4430
