motherboard h81 pro btc with risers without power, 4 gb of ram and a pentium haswell will do the trick
psu 1500i from corsair, should be enough with some undervolting at best

Well you already have the expensive part of the rig (GPUs) and you say that your electricity is cheap. I would go for it. 
You can probably get the rest of the parts you need cheap here on the marketplace forum.
I´m mining with 10 280x and they are pointed at XMR for now, low network hashrate and a good chance to increase in value.

I have been following crypto for a little while.
I have six r9 280 GPU's that were given to me from a former coworker. He made a small fortune in the last year and is now taking an extended vacation. He gave me some of his hardware and told me to use this forum if I had any questions. Is it worth spending the capital for a motherboard, power supply and ram to make a mining rig with six GPU's?
What would be the best motherboard, processor, and power supply?
Any coins that would be best to mine?
I was able to get one of the GPU's to work with my desktop but that's all I can hook up. I've been mining boolberry for a couple weeks. I get cheap electricity so that's not a concern.
Is it worth it to spend more money to use the GPU's I've been given or should I just put them in a box and forget about them. It wouldn't cost much but I don't want to waste my time if it's pointless.
Thanks in advance.
if it's for mining any crappy board and low end cpu/ram will do... the important part is the psu I have six r9 280 GPU's that were given to me from a former coworker.
