Q1a.
I did not know this, but my m2n-e mobo does not support multiple GPUs.  I knew it was not SLI, but what i did not know was that if i connected the pcix1 to x16 lane adapter it would still not work.  i did not plan on using another GPU for gaming just mining.  That being said, is there a mobo out there, and it is more than fine that it would me more that a few years old, that supports ddr2 and an IDE hard drive that you would recommend (other than the m2n-e sli)?  That way i can swap out the mobo without making a huge investment.

Q1b.
if i connect a (or many) x1 (or x4) to x16 pci- adapters to an SLI or crossfire mobo, are there any circumstances where it would *not* work?  I mean will it use all the GPUs?
